Clare is a passionate midwife and academic. She currently works as a senior midwifery lecturer at Charles Darwin University in Australia and has a small independent midwifery practice providing continuity of midwifery care to all ‘risk’ women. Clare believes women have the right to choose where to give birth and who should attend them and that midwives should be supported to provide woman centred care to all women, even those who choose care outside of recommended guidelines.
