Midwifery
Midwives help to prepare new parents for parenthood by supporting them in making lifestyle changes for the benefit of their future family life. Being a midwife covers much more than delivering babies, although that’s a crucial part of the job.
If you would like to support mothers during pregnancy and ensure the best quality of care for babies at the earliest stages of life, this could be the career for you.
