Independent Midwives in North & West Yorkshire, providing Antenatal and Postnatal Care

Independent, supportive midwifery services offering antenatal & postnatal care, antenatal education, birth debriefs, and postnatal wellbeing support

Our Services

Private, independent midwifery support designed to help parents feel informed, prepared, and supported before and after birth.

Care that carries you from bump to baby

I am a registered midwife offering private, independent support for families during pregnancy and after birth. These services are designed to provide additional time, education, and reflective space alongside routine NHS maternity care.

All support focuses on preparation, reflection, and wellbeing. Clinical care, diagnosis, and decision-making remain with NHS professionals.

This section stays calm and factual. It does important boundary work.

Small groups and personalised sessions

More time, space, and individual attention.

Independent, non-clinical support

Designed to complement NHS maternity care, not replace it.

Clear, balanced information without pressure or agenda.

Meet Pip Harper, Independent Midwife

Hi, I’m Pip Harper. I’m a registered midwife with 9 years of hands-on experience working within the NHS, most recently as recently as 2026.

I now offer private, independent midwifery support for parents who want more time and space to prepare, reflect, and feel supported during pregnancy and after birth.

My approach is calm, non-judgemental, and focused on working alongside NHS maternity services, not replacing them
