Independent Midwife
My Story
I have been a midwife for forty years. Working in both government and private sector before joining Sr Marilyn Sher in her well established practice. I’m passionate about woman’s rights, natural birth and empowering woman to make informed choices when it comes to their bodies. I had 3 natural births with midwives and those memories live with me 30 years later. I was present at the water birth of my first grandchild. This strengthened my belief that midwife led births is the only way. We never get tired of the miracle of new life and the privilege and wonder of being part of this amazing journey.

My favourite quote:
Birth is an opportunity to transcend. To rise above what we are accustomed to, reach deeper inside ourselves than we are familiar with, and to see not only what we are truly made of, but the strength we can access in and through birth. – Marcie Macari
