About us
ABOUT US
Our philosophy of care
elevate your midwifery care
midwifery grassroots
Elemental midwifery care is rooted in the physiology of birth.
We trust you and your baby to do the work together without unnecessary interventions-
our skills and knowledge are there if the rhythm of physiology takes a turn. We minimise interventions because we know that the less you intervene the better outcome you have.
radical responsibility
We encourage you to reclaim your power, take charge of your health, become deeply connected to your body and your baby and to embrace this transformative journey to parenthood. We will walk together on this journey, we will respect and support your autonomy in making choices aligned with your needs.
empowerment through knowledge
We provide all the information you need to make choices that align with your body, your values and wishes. Informed Decisions is about being fully aware of all your options and understanding the pros and cons of each choice.
WE HONOUR ALL YOUR CHOICES
crafted for you
Family-Centred and personalised care for your pregnancy, birth and postnatal time. We will dive into different aspects of these transitions, it is a powerful journey and you deserve the time and the space to explore it on many levels. Every aspect of our care is shaped around your choices, preferences, and needs. Your care plan is as individual as you are.
ABOUT US
OUR INTENTIONS
After years of experience as community midwives in Brighton we decided to take the leap of INDEPENDENT MIDWIFERY.
Your voice matters. We stand by you as your advocates, ensuring your voice is heard and empowering you to have a positive journey. A balanced blend of emotional intelligence skills with clinical expertise, based on physiology, evidence and resources-based information. We recognize that the most important evidence comes from you. You are the experts in your life and body and we meet you where you are, bringing our expert skills to support you in the way you need most.
At Rise Independent Midwives, we believe every family deserves ELEVATED care, compassionate, individualised, and empowering
For many reason (eg. shortage of midwives, politics, time restrictions, home birth suspensions and many more) we couldn't give the care that we wanted within the NHS. We want to guide families toward an experience that empowers them to trust their instincts and their innate ability to become parents, encouraging them to take charge of their story with confidence. We want to bring our wisdom to support your journey. Let's embark on this journey together, nurturing life's most powerful transition with evidence based skills, compassion, respect, empathy and non-judgmental mindset.
As independent midwives, we get to know YOU. Your plans, your dreams, your fears about birth and parenthood. Our care is crafted to fit your unique needs, ensuring you feel supported, informed, and empowered From the moment you choose us until well after your little one arrives, we're with you. The same familiar faces will guide you through prenatal visits, birth, and postnatal care. It’s all about building trust and connection, at the heart of our midwifery practice lies a deep-rooted belief in the power and importance of the midwife-mother/parent relationship.
