The World Health Organisation (WHO) states that "midwives are the most appropriate primary health care providers to be assigned to the care of normal birth."¹

Sunshine Coast Midwife, Lois Wattis

Sunshine Coast Midwife

My name is Lois Wattis and I am registered with the Queensland Nursing Council as a Comprehensive Registered Nurse/Midwife (RN/RM). I am accredited with the Australian College of Midwives as an Independent Practising Midwife (IPM), and I am an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC). I practise in Queensland on the Sunshine Coast.

Midwifery and Lactation Consultation

As a Lactation Consultant in Private Practice I can provide breastfeeding support and guidance in your home. I am also employed in a specialist Lactation Consultant role (CN/LC) at Nambour General Hospital and due to time constraints I can no longer provide direct midwifery birth support services.

As a Registered Midwife I offer private midwifery consultations providing professional independant advice and education about your pregnancy, labour, birth and early parenting.

Baby and motherI support your intuitive knowledge about your baby and offer practical guidance to develop your parenting skills and facilitate breastfeeding, assisting a smooth transition to family life.

Although I am no longer conducting homebirths, I am committed to offering women the choice of personalised care which is focussed on their individual needs and family structure.

A woman's birthjourney is her own unique experience.
I make no promises about her destiny,
That is not in my power.
What I do promise is
I will be with her
- a midwife "with woman"
- through pregnancy, birth and early parenting.
Every birthjourney I travel is a privilege beyond measure.
