QUESTION 1: WHAT IS AN ENDORSED MIDWIFE?
Endorsed Midwives are privately practising midwives with additional training to prescribe & order medications, tests & scans relating to pregnancy, birth & up
to 6 weeks post birth. We work in collaboration with GP/Obstetricians to ensure women & babies have optimal heath outcomes.
✨MEDICARE AND HEALTH FUND REBATES AVAILABLE✨
QUESTION 2: CAN I HAVE A HOME BIRTH WITH DANI THE MIDWIFE?
Unfortunately, not at this time. Dani the Midwife is unable to offer a birthing service. Dani the Midwife may be able to be a birthing support person at your birthing hospital.
QUESTION 3: HOW MANY APPOINTMENTS WILL I NEED?
Dani the Midwife recommends at least 8 appointments during pregnancy, this can be tailored to your needs. Every labour, birth and postnatal experience is different & unique. Some women want one to two appointments post birth, other women want & need additional support e.g. every week for 5 or 6 weeks. This might be for feeding support, checking newborn growth & development as well as monitoring mum's healing & recovery. Support during the transition into the mother's new role is crucial whether you are a first time mum or navigating life with a newborn and toddler.
We need to nurture the mother in order for her to care for the family💖
FAQ
QUESTION 4: DOES DANI THE MIDWIFE OFFER PAYMENT PLANS?
Yes! Payment plans can be arranged with Dani the Midwife for Pregnancy and
Postnatal packages.
QUESTION 5: CAN I CLAIM INFANT MASSAGE WITH MY PRIVATE HEALTH FUND?
If you have pregnancy and postnatal cover, yes Infant massage can be claimed as a postnatal education course. Depending on your Private Health Insurance, the 5 week block course needs to be completed by the time your baby is 12 weeks old. If attending weekly sessions over 5 weeks is not manageable, Infant Massage can also be claimed as a one-on-one private education session.
QUESTION 6: CAN I CONTRIBUTE TOWARDS A LOVED ONES APPOINTMENT?
Absolutely! What a fantastic way to celebrate and support the new mother!
Dani the Midwife has a range of Gift Vouchers for Pregnancy Care, Postpartum
support or Infant Massage. Vouchers for Pregnancy Education Sessions can also be purchased or contributions made towards gift vouchers and services run by Dani the Midwife. Unfortunately, Medicare rebates can not be claimed when redeeming a gift voucher.
