I've always been the type of person who loves being close to others. When I was younger, I would spend hours cuddled up next to my mom or grandmother, feeling their warmth and listening to their stories. As I grew older, this desire for closeness only intensified - which is probably why I ended up becoming a midwife.

Being around pregnant women during my training was amazing for me; it allowed me to form strong bonds with them while also getting to experience the intimacy of childbirth firsthand. And now that I'm working as a midwife, I get to be there for these women at one of the most special moments in their lives - bringing new life into the world.

There's something about being able to nurture and care for someone during this time that just feels right to me. Maybe it's because I've always been a bit of a momma's girl myself! Whatever it is, I feel incredibly lucky to be able to do this work every day.
