Helen Ireland

Helen started training as a midwife in Britain in 1983 and has worked internationally, interstate and locally providing antenatal, labour, birth and postnatal care to women from all walks of life. 

She is a passionate midwife and believes in a woman's right to make her own informed choices. A major part of her role is to inform and educate women by providing up-to-date information and education to empower them to make the best choices to keep their family safe and healthy.  

Her early life was spent with her family living in Fiji and Nigeria. She has travelled to many other countries and sees these experiences as an influence on her respectful approach to birthing and parenting. It has broadened her knowledge and understanding of the differences in cultures and ways of growing families. She likes to work with the woman and the people the woman chooses for her support at this very significant time in her life. 

Being at the birth of a baby is always a privilege. Where a woman chooses to have, her baby is a personal decision and Helen respects all possible choices available to women; whether it is a home birth or in hospital, a water birth or a Caesarian Section. Helen is happy to provide pregnancy and postnatal care in the comfort or your own home. She is also a Shared Care Provider at The Royal Women’s Hospital.
