Maternity
When you’re pregnant one of the first things you’ll need to do is choose your maternity provider.
How you want to give birth may influence your decision on what maternity service you choose. You’ll want to think about things like what kind of pain relief you may want to have access to, what kind of antenatal education they provide and whether they can offer things like water birth, home birth or midwifery led birth.
You have choice over the way your care is planned and received based on what matters to you.
We’ve listed below all the maternity providers on offer in Greater Manchester.
