When considering your options for maternity care, you might wonder why you would choose to hire an independent midwife (IM) when you can receive care through the NHS for free. At Rise Independent Midwives, we believe that investing in independent midwifery care is about so much more than just the services provided; it’s about the quality of care and the deeply personal connection we build with you and your family.
Here’s why choosing to hire an independent midwife can transform your experience:
We Truly Love What We Do
We are passionate about midwifery and dedicated to caring for you the way YOU want! Our love for this work drives us to provide a level of service that goes beyond clinical needs, focusing on your emotional, physical well-being and beyond.
Autonomy and Authenticity
As independent practitioners, we have the freedom to practice in alignment with our truth and authenticity. This means that our care is not bound by rigid protocols, allowing us to tailor our approach to fit your individual needs and preferences.
Family-Centered Care
We believe that families deserve to be at the heart of their care. Our approach is deeply rooted in family-centered care, where your family’s needs and wishes guide every aspect of our services.
Building Meaningful Relationships
We prioritize getting to know you and your family, allowing us to build a meaningful relationship based on trust and understanding. This connection creates a supportive environment where you can feel truly comfortable.
Your Vision Is Our Vision
Your hopes and intentions for your birth experience are paramount. We will not sabotage your dreams; instead, we are here to uplift and support your vision for your journey into parenthood.
Empowering You
We believe in your strength and capability. Birth is a powerful experience, and we are here to help you harness that power. You are so much more capable than you may realize, and we’re dedicated to helping you embrace that truth.
The Benefits of Independent Midwifery Care

We dedicate ample time to get to know you and your family, fostering a relationship that enhances your care experience. This connection is vital to understanding what truly matters to you.
3. Freedom to Shape Your Care:
