I have two adult sons and two dogs that keep me busy when I’m not working!

I qualified as a midwife in 2013 and I have recently worked as a senior midwife at a stand-alone birth centre. Before that, I was a community midwife and worked in a delivery suite in a large obstetric unit.  I an a qualified Newborn and Infant Physical Examinations (NIPE) practitioner 

I am currently working as a specialist adviser for sexual health services and studying at Greenwich University for a prescribing qualification.

I am really passionate about supporting women to be fully informed, have choices, and feel empowered to have a positive birth experience. I am proud of the services that Birth Actually provide to pregnant people and their families and we cannot wait to meet you

I'm originally from 'up north' and came to Kent over 10 years ago to start my midwifery training. I have two small children who keep me busy, but if I had any spare time, I love reading and sleeping!!!

I am currently a senior midwife in a low-risk midwifery unit and also a tongue-tie practitioner. I am trained in performing Newborn and Infant Physical Examinations (NIPEs); hypnobirthing; aromatherapy; and am currently training to become a Lactation Consultant.

Having trained as a midwife before I had my children (both of whom were delivered by Hayley!) I have experienced first-hand how having an understanding of the physiology of birth can help lead to a positive birth experience. I am excited to work with families to help them prepare for their new arrivals!!!
