Hello my name is Cheryl, I am a qualified midwife now working as a maternity nurse and living in South Yorkshire. My hobbies include reading, walking, travelling and spending time with my family and friends.​I have extensive training, education and experience working with mums and their newborn babies. I am organised, resourceful, with excellent communication skills. I am a compassionate, non-judgemental, dedicated person, who loves working with new mums.​Over my 15 years midwifery career, I have had the privilege of caring for hundreds of mums and their babies. I love nurturing relationships between parents, families and their newborn babies.​I am passionate about delivering holistic care based on evidential research, empowering mums to make informed choices and fully supporting their parenting decisions. ​As a mum myself I am aware of the importance for mums to rest and recuperate following childbirth and in the early postnatal period. I enjoy working with new families, offering guidance and practical and emotional support.​I thoroughly enjoy living and working within the household environment, allowing me to build relationships and provide professional one to one maternity care.​My own children are now living independently, allowing me the flexibility to pursue my career as a maternity nurse, working nationwide and overseas.​I am fully insured and have an enhanced DBS, a current paediatric first aid certificate, full driving licence and excellent references.​
