In 2012 I came to the Far North as a student midwife and felt that remote rural midwifery was definitely what I wanted to be doing. The beautiful weather and beaches also helped with that decision. 

I grew up with 6 younger siblings, the last 3 were born at home and I was present at their births. At the time I didn’t realise it, but supporting physiological birth and women’s choices around birth was something that was really important to me and so becoming a midwife felt like a natural progression. 

In 2013 I registered as a midwife and set up my LMC practice in Kaitaia. Being so far away from a secondary unit (2.5 hours by road in favourable conditions), I had many amazing and challenging experiences that I wouldn’t change at all. With a 97% vaginal birth rate, I really felt like I achieved what I set out to in supporting physiological birth. 

I am now employed at our local primary unit, Kaitaia Maternity as the Diabetes Specialist Midwife which allows me to spend more time with my two boys ages 2 and 4.
