THE BIRTH TIME MIDWIVES COLLECTIVE
Over the coming weeks we will be introducing you to our collective of midwives who are practicing all over Sydney.
Today, meet Chelsea Baker Midwife Chelsea
From May, Chelsea will be offering private midwifery care to families in the Blue Mountains and Greater Sydney region.
Chelsea has been a Registered Midwife since 2020, working primarily in hospital settings and supporting private midwives at homebirths. She has held the vision of working as a privately practicing midwife since she commenced her studies in 2016. During her time working within hospitals, she gained valuable clinical skills, but also became acquainted with the results of fragmented and impersonal maternity care. This, contrasted by the incredible experience of being cared for by private midwives (Jo and Lu) in her own pregnancies, strengthened her resolve to take the leap into private midwifery practice.
Chelsea believes that the journey to parenthood is a sacred rite of passage and that it is her privilege to walk beside her clients as a grounded, heart-led companion. Her care blends evidence-based practice with intuitive knowing and is grounded in partnership: you lead, and she provides guidance, advocacy, and support.
