Amanda, Nathan, Aria and Leilani Taiaroa
After having a horrendous time finding a midwife who would take me on, at 12 weeks in my first pregnancy Julie came to my rescue.
I was at once drawn to Julies down to earth and relaxed nature and my first pregancy went by without a hitch.
When it came time to welcome my baby into the world, to my horro I found out that it was Julies weekend off, stressed that the person I had put all my trust in was not going to be there, I panicked as I rang Nelly as I didn’t know her at all.
I was a tough patient throughout my time in that delivery room with her, but Nelly was patient and amazing, even as I lost alot of blood after the birth, and helped us welcome Aria into our lives.
Late the next year when we found out we were expecting again, I knew that the only person I wanted with us was again Julie.
Once again I had a trouble free pregnancy, and as my due date passed, Julies weekend off was only 2 days away. As I went into labour on the Sunday I was so upset that Julie wasn’t going to deliver my second baby either, however she had told me to text in case she could make it, and a minute later I was on the phone to her as she sacrificed what was left of her weekend to deliver in a rather easy 2 and a half hours little Leilani.
Julie has given me the motivation to pursue a career in Midwifery myself, something I always wanted to do, but, thought I never could. But with her encouragement and support I’m due to start studying in 2012 when the girls are a bit bigger.
So Julie thank you on so many different levels, and for anyone who is after a genuine caring midwife who will always have you feeling at ease, here is my recommendation for Julie
Erin, Dan and Katie Larosn
I was given Julie’s name from a friend whom had used Julie twice. As soon as I found out I was pregnant I called Julie to meet with her. Straight away I felt relaxed and comfortable with Julie and decided to have her as my midwife. I had no problems with anything I asked Julie, and during my pregnancy I was very relaxed, and was ready for anything. I was sure right through I did not want an epidural – Julie told me she could not do them which made it easier for me. When it came to the labour Julie could not be there, so I had Nelly who was lovely – I ended up having a C-Section but not having the epidural. I was pleased with my outcome and loved having the support from Julie. Julie has been awesome since Katie was born. I would recommend Julie to anyone and will have Julie the next time round. Julie you are amazing and a wonderful lady and helped my pregnancy be the best I could have ever imagened. Thank you. You will be missed.
