I trained as a general nurse in 1975 and qualified as a midwife in 1980. My passion has always been caring and supporting women to nurture the babies in a positive family environment and enjoy parenthood. I have worked in the hospital and practised in the community since 1986 and enjoy the continuity of care I provide.

My belief in empowering women and their partners with knowledge and skills that birthing is a natural process in normal healthy pregnancies has led me to facilitate, co-ordinate and develop antenatal birth preparation courses in the hospital and community settings.

Continued professional and personal development is important in my philosophy of care to enable me to update and share evidence based research practices. Supporting parents with knowledge to believe, trust and embrace the body’s innate knowledge of birth. They can enjoy the birth experience without fear, their mind free of stress and belief that birth can be a wonderful process of life changing transition into parenthood.

I practice as a registered independent midwife offering specialist maternity services tailored to meet your needs.
