Roman was super comfortable, and after being induced, still needed help with an emergency section. I would like to thank the Sapphire Midwife Team, in particular Rowan, Jess and Claire for their first class level of care for me and my little man. You made me feel so at ease, in what could have been a very scary time. Thank you so much!

We were induced on Monday 15th but our little lady was in an awkward position so we ended up in theatre for an assisted forceps delivery. It certainly wasn't straight forward but the staff were wonderful, with an anaesthetist driving to the hospital from home in the middle of the night to avoid us having to have a general anaesthetic c-section! We are externally grateful to all the staff! The NHS really is amazing!
