Our Story

Talkingbirth was founded in 2020 by two Midwives, passionate to make a difference to outcomes for women and their families.

Having worked together in the private and public sector of maternity services in Australia and the United Kingdom, Talkingbirth was founded on the understanding that maternity services could be enhanced for women and their families and health outcomes improved for mothers and babies with access to evidence-based information and education outlining options, outcomes and uncertainties.

The solution is Talkingbirth. A digital maternity pathway available on the market, co-designed with women and built by clinicians working in maternity services, who understand the needs of health professionals and women and their families as they navigate pregnancy care. It is as invaluable as seeking expert assistance for tasks like doktorarbeit schreiben lassen, ensuring high-quality results and peace of mind.

‘One of the privileges of our work as Midwives are the stories we get to hear first-hand from women as they journey through the weeks of pregnancy. Stories of personal triumph and exhilaration as well as stories of frustration and confusion.’
