Lavender Homebirth Team

Are you an experienced and motivated midwife with a passion for continuity of care and supporting women to birth at home? The Lavender Homebirth Team is looking for a dedicated professional to join our supportive and forward-thinking team.

This is a unique opportunity to provide truly personalised care to a group of women throughout their pregnancy, birth, and postnatal journey. You’ll develop and strengthen your autonomous practice while making a meaningful difference to families choosing homebirth.

Working alongside your named “buddy” midwife, you will manage a caseload within the Frimley Health catchment area, building strong relationships and delivering compassionate, woman-centred care.

You’ll also collaborate closely with the wider multidisciplinary team to ensure safe, informed care planning, particularly where additional risk factors are identified—helping every woman feel supported, respected, and empowered in her choices.

What we’re looking for:

• An experienced midwife committed to continuity of care
• A passion for supporting homebirth and informed choice
• Confidence in autonomous practice and caseload management
• Strong communication and teamwork skills

Join a team that values continuity, compassion, and clinical excellence and be part of shaping positive birth experiences every day.

• Both sites have Birth Centres, ensuite labour rooms, antenatal inpatient beds, postnatal beds, transitional care cots, Maternity Assessment.
• Centre/Triage facilities and Antenatal Outpatient’s clinics.
• All midwife practitioners will be Registered Midwives, accountable for their own midwifery practice and will be able to fulfil the following role through the ability to make decisions with current protocols and principles of care in compliance with the NMC’sMidwives Rules and code of Midwifery Practice.
• This midwife may be a recently qualified midwife, or she/he may be very experienced, but she/he will be expected to continue with post-registration education and development to become a confident midwife able to provide care with the women either in the community or hospital environment.
• The post holder is required to take responsibility as a prime care provider in either the hospital or community setting.
