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, and the lead midwife here at YPM. I’ve had the privilege of helping families welcome new additions for more than a decade in the NHS, and now as a private health professional. I believe every woman’s pregnancy, birth, and parenting experience should be enveloped in choice.
As a Private Midwife and care provider, I work for **you**. My goal is to help you achieve the self-confident birth you deserve using holistic midwifery care throughout our time together. I continually upskill and stay connected with local trusts, ensuring you have access to comprehensive support during your birth.
Both of my own babies were born at home while I was working as an NHS community midwife. I chose private care because I believe (and research shows) that continuity and relationship-based care lead to improved outcomes and experiences. Midwifery support and personalized experiences through dedicated 1-2-1 care yield better results. Recent media reports of maternity services highlight questionable, traumatic, and limited choices for women. However, evidence shows better outcomes with a private midwife throughout your care.
I’ve walked this journey myself and am here to hear your voice too, putting you right at the center 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.
