When I was 14 and pregnant and met my teenage pregnancy midwife I absolutely knew midwifery was the path for me, 14 years on I have done it! Had my last shift last night as a student midwife, delivered a total of 48 healthy babes over 3yrs and had the time of my life doing so!

Happy International Day of the Midwife ✨ I wouldn’t be here enjoying my career so much if it wasn’t for my teen pregnancy midwife who inspired me to be a midwife when I was 14 having my baby - I am so proud to have found out I am now a member of the practice development team ❤️

@MaryJobson @annastabler1 Wow Mary incredible! An inspiration 👏🏻❤️

22 months after posting about the results of my 1st MSc module I got the results of my final module. Stunned to find I got 86%. I entered my 30s without any University qualifcations and have now completed my MSc in Healthcare Management. Finally finished @annastabler1
