About Us ...

Birth is a natural, healthy, life-giving event which you may choose to share with your family and friends in an atmosphere of joy and trust.

Research shows that planned homebirth for low-risk women, attended by a suitably experienced registered midwife, is as safe, if not safer than, hospital birth.

The Homebirth Network of SA is a community group which supports and encourages women in their quest for a safe, fulfilling and empowering birth experience.

The group also works for changes in the health care system in order to better accommodate the needs of women who choose to birth at home.
