Botany Downs Birthing Unit is a midwife-led birth centre at 292 Botany Road in Golflands, Manukau City, Auckland. Customers say the midwives were helpful and gave excellent assistance, knowledge and peace of mind through their stay. One reviewer praised the supportive team of midwives and other staff, and an immunisation service that runs on Thursdays. Another reviewer said the centre is working to stay open after government funding cuts. Customers who had a high-risk pregnancy describe a difficult time, though that account concerns a hospital birth and not this unit. Our pick in Golflands for a supported, midwife-led birth.
