The Birth House was established in 2013, to meet the needs of the birthing women and their families in our community, creating a space for private midwifery care, education and workshops, antenatal and postnatal support groups, and shared resources.
Services include:
- private midwifery services,
- professional development workshops,
- childbirth & early parenting education,
- lactation consultants,
- holistic allied health care services,
- antenatal & postnatal support groups,
- resource library and birth pool hire
The Birth House partners with Midwives Geelong, a team of six private midwives, who work with women and their families in providing pregnancy, birth and postnatal care. Five of the Midwives Geelong midwives are currently able to provide Medicare rebates for antenatal and postnatal care.
