Congratulations to student midwife Leah who achieved her 40th delivery!

Favourite Midwifery fact :
“Breast milk changes composition from feed to feed and also during feeds to meet the nutritional requirements of your baby!! 👶”

Favourite way to promote Physiology :
“I love promoting skin to skin contact immediately following birth! This aids oxytocin release and facilitates a physiological third stage as well as having many benefits for the baby including regulating their temperature and heart rate!”

Funny fact about me :
“When I am not working, you’ll find me reading a fantasy book! I have read 80 books so far this year 📖 🐛 “

As part of midwifery training, student midwives must facilitate forty vaginal births prior to registration.
During assessment or admission, students may support with your care under the supervision of our midwifery teams. Your consent will be gained prior to care participation. As well as gaining experience, they can offer invaluable emotional support, continuity of care, a calm and reassuring presence and much more.
We receive fab feedback about our student midwives contributions - You Go, Glen Coco! 👯‍♀️

MEET YOUR MATERNITY SUPPORT WORKER 💚

Hi, my name is Julie!

Well, me in a nutshell… I’ve been a MSW supporting women and families for the past five years.
My career journey has been anything but ordinary – from childcare to military families, residential social work, working with children with autism, driving cabs and being a pub landlady. My brown belt in jiu- jitsu helped me with kicking the punters out!
Each chapter has taught me something new about people, patience and purpose. Just like my surname - I’m Young at heart.
I come from a big family – one of nine siblings, including three sets of twins and I’m a proud mum and nana of thirteen.
Outside of work I found joy in cold water dips and wild swimming as a member of the Blue T**s.
I look forward to the Kings Letter at the age of 100, on the top of Ben Nevis.

Guilty pleasures :
Cold water and a good mountain walk followed by a cracking pornstar martini . I’ve tackled the Yorkshire Three Peaks and the Sandstone trail.

A quote from some gorgeous piece of feedback received recently (continued below) 💕
If you’d like to share your birth story or feedback please direct message us 💌

“I had an absolutely incredible birth experience at Wythenshawe Birth Centre. From start to finish, the care I received was outstanding. The midwives were supportive, kind, and truly made me feel safe and cared for throughout.

A special thank you to Aisha and Alice as well as student midwives Liv and Laura, who were exceptional. Their calm, compassionate, and professional approach gave me so much confidence and comfort. I felt listened to, respected, and completely supported through every stage of labour.

The facilities at Wythenshawe Birth Centre are beautiful and thoughtfully designed — the birthing pool, mood lighting, and peaceful environment really helped me stay calm, focused, and relaxed throughout labour.

I feel incredibly lucky to have had such a positive and empowering birth. I can’t thank the team enough, for helping make this experience so special. I would highly recommend Wythenshawe Birth Centre to any expectant parent.”

MEET YOUR MATERNITY SUPPORT WORKER 💚

Hi, my name is Kinga!

I have been a MSW at Wythenshawe Birth Centre for the last year and a half.
It started with passion for breastfeeding- I first got involved in feeding support after reading ‘ Politics of Breastfeeding’ and seeing so many women disappointed with their feeding journeys around the time when I had my son. I was then fascinated by other aspects of pregnancy, birth and postpartum and I worked in many roles around maternity – supporting Maternity Voices Partnership, as a doula and part of community Infant Feeding Team.
I have a 9 year old son who I have birthed at home and whom I love adventures with. I enjoy hiking and other outdoor activities as well as Latin dancing such as salsa and bachata.

You can meet me during weekly Birth Centre Tours 😊

Guilty pleasure… watching Casualty and Grey’s Anatomy with some ice cream 😉

Our Walk ‘n’ Talks are for all dads, in particular, for dads who have a baby under two-years-old or who are soon to be dads. Mike who will be supporting this event, works with dads who aren't often supported during the transition to fatherhood and would love for you to attend this Walk ‘n’ Talk for a chat. This includes dads who are neurodiverse or have special educational and/or health needs, dads from ethnic minorities, or GBT+ communities (including non-binary birthing and non-birthing parents), young dads, and other dads with similar experiences.

If you are a dad who feels they experience any of the above, please join Mike at Heaton Park for his Walk ‘n’ Talk. Mike will be happy to hear from you and discuss any concerns or experiences you may be having.

Congratulations to student midwife Liv who achieved her 40th delivery today - the perfect moment for her OG pose, the fist pump 💪

Fave midwifery fact:
“No two days are the same as a midwife! You never know what you are going to walk into …”

Best way to promote physiology:
“Your favourite music 🎶 🩷 I love when women deliver their baby to a song and the anticipation of what that song will be !!! During my first facilitated delivery the baby was born to Oasis 🙈”

Funny fact:
“I get complimented by women for making the best brews (Yorkshire girl) ☕️###xx”
