Welcome

Welcome to the Golden Bay Midwives page. On this page we tell you a little about each of us and show a photo of each
of us.

Hi, my name is Carol. I have been a midwife for longer than I care to remember. It is and has always
been my passion. I have also run a bush hospital in Outback Australia, been a Polytech tutor, a self-employed midwife from
the really early days, and shared a midwifery practice for 7 years. I graduated with a Masters in Midwifery degree in December
2005.
We,
the Golden Bay midwives, enjoy working in partnership together, supporting and encouraging women and their families throughout
pregnancy, birth and the postnatal time.

Hello, my name is Pamela. I have been a midwife for 18 years of which seven have been as an independant midwife
in Golden Bay. I have always enjoyed and felt privileged to be part of each unique and individual birthing experience.
My husband, Christian, and I have produced seven children over the 22 years we have been together. They vary in age from
21 to 2 years. Each of my childrens births was unique and taught me how special every pregnancy and birth is.

Kiaora – Guten Tag, I am delighted to be here in the bay doing what
I love in a place that inspires creativity. My journey into midwifery came from a time in my life where I needed strength
to decipher who I was as a women, mother and now midwife. Having gained self wisdom and continual knowledge into the wonders
of being a women is something I not only enjoy sharing but gain, from women as they share their own inner strength by
way of physical, spiritual and pyschological realms enabling holistic women to nurture our future.
I am priviledged to work alongside Carol and Pamela to support womens (and
midwives) choice in Golden Bay.
In any spare time I have I try to practice the art of centering, wholeness
and openness. + love catching up on lost sleep, strong coffee and a good book
