Coastal Midwifery Team
Areas covered
Paignton and Torquay
We are a team of 12 Midwives and 1 Maternity care assistant who work shifts to cover 24 hours per day.
We are a fully integrated team which means we provide care where the client wishes – either at home or in hospital. Currently we have a 7% homebirth rate.
We would like you to contact us as soon as you know you are pregnant, either telephone the office or leave a message. There is an answer phone available if we are out. Alternatively you can make an appointment to see the Midwife at your Doctor’s surgery.
We look forward to meeting you.
The midwives are usually in the office each morning between 9am – 9.30am for direct contact or 24 hour answerphone. Please do not leave urgent messages on this number.
