About Us
At Great Expectations Midwives we believe that a positive birth experience sets the standards for a positive family bond to be established.
Great Expectations Midwives
We pride ourselves in trusting the process and allowing labour to unfold as normally and naturally as possible, only interfering when medically necessary. We believe that this is the reason we have a 78% natural birth rate and 62% successful vbac rate.
Where you birth has no impact on our care for you, we still remain your primary care giver and your monitoring is the same. It is therefore a choice based on where you will be most comfortable and what resonates with you most, whether that is birthing at home or birthing at Genesis clinic.

About Sarah Jones
From the moment that I witnessed my first birth, I knew that this was the miracle in which I would feel honoured to be a part of. It is a time in which new parents feel their most vulnerable and therefore an opportunity for me to make the biggest difference. The birth of your child has a remarkable impact on the bond that you form together and I therefore believe in allowing parents to choose what is best for them. I studied at WITS University, and did my community service at Rahima Moosa mother and Child Hospital, before working as a midwife for Genesis clinic.
I joined Sue King in February 2017, as her beliefs in the natural process of labour aligned perfectly with mine and I felt that she could mentor and teach me the best, and I now want to carry her legacy forward so that other expectant families may still be touched by her. I worked together with Elrika (Private Midwife) until February 2022. Having a partner in the practice was an amazing start to private practice. I now practice on my own and look forward to walking this phenomenal journey with you.
