Clinical Safety & Referrals

At The Mother & Baby Partnership, your safety and your baby’s is always our priority. Our care is delivered by fully qualified, experienced midwives who are experts in supporting normal, healthy pregnancies and postnatal recovery.

As registered midwives, we are trained to recognise the boundaries of normal and are expected to refer appropriately when care moves outside of that. If any concerns arise during your antenatal or postnatal care, we will refer you to your named consultant or local maternity services as needed.

In the event of any emergency, you will be advised to attend hospital immediately or contact NHS emergency services (999).

We do not provide acute or emergency care, and we do not offer services during labour or birth. Our role is to walk alongside you, offering safe, compassionate and empowering care during the antenatal and postnatal periods, and referring on where appropriate.
