Vivian Duan, Registered Midwife
Vivian is a NZ registered Midwife and a mother of three boys. She worked as a core midwife & community midwife at Auckland City Hospital and Greenlane Clinical Centre from 2017, then worked as an LMC midwife based in central Auckland from 2020. She looks after women through pregnancy, delivery and up to 6 weeks postpartum.
Vivian believes that childbirth is not primarily a medical event and keen to support women to have a positive pregnancy and birth experience. She integrates Spinning Babies and Calm Birth into her practice and is enthusiastic about natural birth including water birth and vaginal birth after CS.
Her birth philosophy also includes: avoid unnecessary interventions, apply evidence based practice, trust women’s intuition and promote holistic health. As your midwife, she will support you and empower you to aim for a smooth and satisfied pregnancy and birth experience, and also be calm and positive to face any challenges when progress deviates from normality.
