Birth Time: the Documentary

Breaking box office records, the new international multi-award winning documentary is now showing in cinemas around Australia and New Zealand.

Three women embark on a mission to find out why an increasing number of women are emerging from their births physically and emotionally traumatised. Their discoveries expose the truth and lead them to join the birth revolution and forge a movement that hopes to change the face of maternity care in Australia and across the developed world.

Our Mission

Birth Time is a movement about changing the current politics, practice and funding of maternity care across the developed world.

It’s an education resource and hub, that aims to:

shine a light on our current maternity system
educate women and pregnant people about different maternity services that are available to them,
for them to understand they have a choice,
and to share information about new and evolving midwifery models of care.

Through our Birth Time platform, we hope to educate, inspire and motivate young women, pregnant women and people, mothers, partners, grandparents, family, birth workers, midwives, doctors, policy makers, politicians, organisations and corporations to be the voice for change.

One Woman, One Midwife

If all women could choose to work in partnership with one midwife who provided them with continuity of care throughout their entire pregnancy, birth and postnatal period, more women could emerge from their births physically well and emotionally safe.
