A huge thank you to all the staff at the Mater. Bringing our little girl into the world with your help was fun, enjoyable, comforting and helpful and we felt completely supported and at home. An especially big shout out to Jenny and Robyn who were absolutely fantastic, along with all our other midwives Fran, Liz, Penny, Eimar and Libby.



Could not recommend having your baby at the Mater enough.



Side note: get the family suite if you can, 310 - spectacular view and plenty of space to enjoy family visits!
