Welcome to Koru Home Birth, my independent midwifery practice for Kent and East Sussex. I am Louise Wilby, an Independent Midwife living in West Kent. I am passionately committed to providing personalised, one-to-one care to women through what I firmly believe to be the amazing journey of pregnancy and birth.
"Pregnancy is a very special journey for a woman. It is a journey of dramatic change: of becoming a mother, of redefining family relationships and taking on the long term responsibility of caring for & cherishing a newborn child. [All] women have travelled the same route, but each journey is unique". (Department of Health, 1993)
I've included a lot of information on the site that I hope you'll find useful whilst planning your pregnancy and birth. You can read more about independent midwifery, about what I offer as part of my one-to-one care and about me.
Please explore the site and if you have any questions, do get in touch - I'd love to hear from you.
