How it works here
Arranging a private midwife in Westmead
Looking for a private midwife in Westmead? EverNurture is a collective rather than an agency. Each of the four midwives runs her own practice, sets her own fee and decides for herself how far she travels, so the honest answer to "do you cover Westmead" is that it depends which midwife. This page explains what a home visit involves before and after the birth, and how to find out who can come to you.
Rather than guess on their behalf, tell us where you are. We will point you to the private midwife or midwives who travel to Westmead, and you deal with the midwife directly from there.
Westmead sits beside Parramatta and is best known for its hospital precinct. It is a different run from the south west, where the one published set of areas sits, so travel is worth checking before you count on it. A postnatal home visit in Westmead is then booked straight into her own diary.
Areas are set by each midwife and can change with how busy she is. Always confirm with her before you count on a visit.
What a home visit covers
The same care wherever she drives to
A home visit from a private midwife in Westmead is the same unhurried appointment as anywhere else the collective reaches.
After the birth
- How you are healing, and how you are actually going
- A full check for your baby, written into your blue book (opens in a new tab)
- Feeding support, with a feed watched in the chair you really use
- Settling, sleep and the questions that surface once you relax
Before the birth
- Private antenatal classes at your own kitchen table
- Labour and birth preparation, and preparing your birth partner
- An unhurried prenatal consultation about how the pregnancy is going for you
Medicare rebates apply for eligible families
Every EverNurture midwife is endorsed, which is what allows a Medicare rebate on a home visit for eligible families. It covers a substantial part of the fee, so the gap is usually far smaller than the headline number.
Fees are set practice by practice. Ask the midwife you are matched with for her fee and the likely rebate together, before you book. Any private midwife in Westmead (opens in a new tab) can be looked up on the Ahpra public register, which shows whether she holds an endorsement.
Ask anyway
The suburbs listed on this site are a starting point rather than a boundary. Between four independent practices the collective reaches a good deal of Sydney, and the only way to know is to ask.
