Welcome to The Warkworth Birthing Centre
Warkworth Birthing Centre opened in February 2000. It is situated in rural surroundings on a hill above the town and has a quiet, homely atmosphere. Full birthing facilities are available for normal births and a pool is available for labour and birth. Your midwife provides your labour and birth care with your second midwife coming in to assist at the birth. After the birth of your baby and until you go home there are midwives, registered nurses and maternity assistants to provide care for you and your baby. Your midwife will visit you daily and continue to provide your post-natal care at home after discharge from the birthing centre. The average length of stay is 4 days for normal births.
Visiting hours are 10am-1pm and 3pm-7pm with no visitors except partners between 1pm-3pm as this is rest time for our Mums. Partners are welcome to stay 8am-8pm.
If contemplating a normal birth or if you have had a previous normal vaginal birth then why not think about birthing at the Warkworth Birthing Centre? We hope you will consider coming to Warkworth for your birth and postnatal stay.
