Midwifery has been the thing to set my soul on fire for so long now. I am so, so privileged to be able to support women through such a precious time in their lives. I love being able to talk to, support and building positive, safe and empowering relationships with women. Women bare their souls to their midwives, they put their lives and the lives of their unborn babies into the hands of their midwife. A good midwife makes the difference between a woman feeling in control, able to adapt to changes around them, safe in their ability to grow, birth and look after their baby; and a woman feeling frightened, passive and anxious about how she will cope with the transition she is going through. Midwives, maternity support workers and student midwives are so privileged and lucky to be given the trust of women during our time with them.
