The average is a 6-12 week booking for maternity assistance, though could be as short as for a 2 week period and as long as an 18 week period.
Most maternity nurses commence the role at or around the due date of the baby.
The average time from start to finish is 2-4 weeks.
The Signature Staff team spend a considerable amount of time and effort drawing up a shortlist of candidates who represent the best-fit for your household based upon both your maternity care requirements and their skill-set and personality.

Most Signature Staff clients wait until 12 weeks into the gestation, when the pregnancy has progressed and they know whether they are expecting a single, twins or triplets.
We would encourage clients to register early to ensure an excellent selection of maternity nurses.
