Hi, Iβm Jess
I am an Endorsed midwife/Registered nurse based in Baldivis, Perth WA. I have a strong passion for caring for women & their families during such an exciting but often challenging time.
I originally completed my midwifery degree in 2014 through Curtin university and have worked in both private and tertiary hospital settings. I have plenty of experience in antenatal care, labour & birth and postnatal care of both low risk and high risk women.
From my experience working in the hospital setting, it is evident that the health system does not have the available staff or available funding to provide the midwifery care that women need and rightfully deserve.
Fear and anxiety are on the rise with an outstanding amount of research suggesting that anxiety and depression in pregnancy can affect 20-40% of women. This level of anxiety and fear can be dramatically reduced with the support of a private midwife. I aim to help women and their families feel empowered, educated, supported and in control for their journey into pregnancy, birth and parenthood.
