I first discovered midwifery during a school careers talk.

It was immediate. Even at 14, I knew this was the work I was meant to do — although at the time, I didn’t yet have the confidence to say it out loud.

Instead, I took a different route. After completing my A levels, I joined the Royal Air Force, serving for five years across the UK and overseas. That experience gave me something invaluable: discipline, resilience, and the confidence to step fully into the career I had always intended to pursue.

When I returned, I trained as a midwife — graduating with a First-Class degree and receiving a Clinical Excellence Award.

I went on to build a senior career specialising in clinical governance and patient safety, including roles as a former Head of Midwifery.

Over the years, I have led and contributed to serious incident investigations, perinatal mortality reviews, and national audits of maternity care.

This work gave me a clear view of what happens behind the scenes when care doesn’t go to plan — and, importantly, how often families are left without clear, honest explanations afterwards.

I began to see a consistent gap:

Families had questions.
But they often didn’t get answers they could truly understand, trust, or use to move forward.

That gap is why I do this work now.

Through independent birth debriefs and maternity care reviews, I offer something that is rarely available within the system:

• Clear, evidence-based explanations of what happened

• Honest answers without defensiveness or dismissal

• An independent perspective, focused entirely on you

Whether you have one question that hasn’t settled, or deeper concerns about the care you received — you are entitled to understand your experience properly.

If you have questions, I will help you find the answers.

I’m ready when you are.
