Who I am
I’m Amar Hamed, a dedicated Registered Midwife and the founder of Sakina for Women. My journey into midwifery was born from a deep passion for holistic, woman-centered care, ensuring that every woman—regardless of background—feels safe, empowered, and supported throughout pregnancy, birth, and beyond.
With years of experience in continuity of care, I’ve witnessed firsthand the transformative power of personalised midwifery support. I specialise in providing culturally safe, evidence-based care, particularly for women from diverse and underrepresented communities. My approach is built on respect, informed choice, and trust, ensuring that each woman receives care that aligns with her values, traditions, and unique journey.
At Sakina for Women, my goal is to restore peace and confidence to the birthing and motherhood experience—whether through antenatal education, homebirth support, postnatal care, or breastfeeding guidance. I am honoured to walk alongside you, providing continuity, comfort, and compassionate care every step of the way.
Because your care should be as unique as your story.
Why We Do What We Do
We believe that when women feel seen, heard, and supported—physically, emotionally, and spiritually—they birth not only their babies but a deeper sense of confidence and peace.
This is more than healthcare; it’s a partnership, a trust, and an act of service.
Birth is your story, your strength, and your right.
At Sakina for Women, we are honored to support you with care that reflects your values, your faith, and your unique journey.
Midwifery Philosophy
Birth is Natural & Powerful
We trust in the natural process of birth. We believe the body has been beautifully designed with the ability to grow, birth, and nurture life. Our role is to support, not interfere, unless needed.
You Know What’s Right for You
You are the expert on your body, your baby, and your birth. Our job is to provide clear information, listen to your preferences, and support you to make choices that feel right for you.
Supportive, Calm, and Respectful Care
We are here to offer calm, continuous care—before, during, and after birth. We believe that strong relationships and familiar faces create confidence and comfort.
Holistic & Individualised Care
Every woman is unique, and so is every birth. We take into account not just your physical health, but also your emotional well-being, cultural background, personal values, and family needs.
Your Family, Your Community
Birth doesn't happen in isolation. It impacts your family, your relationships, and your community. We welcome your support people and loved ones to be part of the journey, recognising how important they are in your circle of care.
Why Sakina?
It all begins with an idea. Maybe you want to launch a business. Maybe you want to turn a hobby into something more. Or maybe you have a creative project to share with the world.
