About Me
Hey! I’m Bailey
Founder & lead at Your Private Midwife
So Much to Think About, all whilst your brain is adjusting to weird hormonal changes! and So Many questions. That’s Where Your Private Midwife comes In.
So let’s start with a simple introduction!
I’m Bailey, a midwife and mum herself & lead midwife here at YPM. I’ve had the privileged role of helping families welcome new additions for more than a decade in my role within the NHS. And now as a private health professional. I believe that every woman’s pregnancy, birth and parenting experience should be surrounded in choice. As a Private Midwife & care provider I work for you. Helping you to achieve the self confident birth you deserve using holistic midwifery care throughout our time together. I upskill and remain connected with the local trusts which you may birth with and find value in their support.
Both my own babies were born at home whilst working as an NHS community midwife. But I chose private care because I believe (and research shows) that with continuity & relationship based care; comes improved outcomes and experiences. Midwifery support & personalised experiences through great 1-2-1 support; have better outcomes. Women’s experiences in recent media reports of maternity services have been questionable, traumatic & limited in choice. But the evidence shows better outcomes with a private midwife throughout your care. I have walked this journey myself and aim to hear your voice through it too, putting you right at centre as the main character energy you are!
Being passionate about all aspects of your pregnancy journey; and believe that supporting you into the parenting arena is a connected experience from your first appointment with your care providers right up to discharge and beyond! And love nothing more than watching you find your voice, your inner confidence to see you are not alone and never should be. It takes a village!
Where do your work & who do you hang out with?
Working as a Private Midwife to personalise your birth options & as a Yorkshire, Manchester & Cheshire based Midwife, in partnership with other colleaguesto offer you more choice, through varied antenatal childbirth education, Newborn Care, breast-feeding support and extended postnatal care means we have increasing reach for our families and improved experiences of your pregnancy, birth and parenting period. I can’t wait to hear your plans for birth & see how we can work together.
Bailey is the midwife I want by my side throughout pregancy, during birth and postnatally. Her reassurance, availability and empowerment at providing choices, enabled me to have the birth I wanted despite some unexpected changes. Her breastfeeding advice following birth was invaluable and she was alongside me cheering as I experienced all the highs and lows of entering motherhood. Thank you for your continued support.

Private Midwife & self confessed skincare junkie
A little extra info on me is that I have had a long a love affair with all things facemasks! (and not the medical kind we’ve seen so much of since 2020)!
The wellbeing kind that helps sooth the soul through selfcare and glowing skin!
In fact I love it so much I am a part of the industry, with a gorgeous award winning brand TempleSpa in their a wellbeing and lifestyle branch of the business.
I love nothing more than treating my new families to a little selfcare TLC in the form of one of our little spa wellness tins to help just ease the early days and remind you that even the newest of mama’s needs to press pause and cleanse.
