Meet Ruth
I am a registered General and Obstetric Nurse, Registered Midwife, and now endorsed Midwife.
In 1990 I set up a birth business in New Zealand supporting women to birth at home and at hospital, during this time women taught me how strong they could be, and I found women choosing to birth at home had better outcomes.
I then moved into home birth for all women.
After 35 years of being on call I decided to come to Australia to tour around and do agency work. I ended up staying in Mackay for 5 years, working both in management, birth center, and women's health. I started to miss the home births, so I completed my endorsement through Griffith University, and am now registered to take on home birth clients in and around Mackay and Whitsunday's.
