I'm a maternity nurse

Welcome to

Miskin Maternity

It takes a special kind of person to become a maternity nurse. Having worked with mums for many years, we both understand the desire to make a real difference, as well as what it takes physically and emotionally

to make that happen.

Whether you'd like to join our team or just brush up on some new skills,

we are pleased to meet you.

Who are we?

Miskin Maternity is co owned by Lizzie Petersen and Geraldine Miskin. We have both worked in the maternity industry for many years. Together, we offer a well rounded skill set of sleep and routines (Lizzie) and breast and bottle-feeding (Geraldine).

We have met many incredible maternity nurses and we have met the not so great ones too. We wanted to bring together a team of girls we felt were like family, who we could trust to do an amazing job for our high profile clients. We are so proud of our dedicated team.

Get in touch below if you would like to join our team, we'd love to hear from you.

How we can help further

We want to pay our skills forward. We know that working with little people is very rewarding but also demanding. New parents are constantly faced with conflicting information and you, are often caught in the middle with a lot of experience but not the medical qualifications.

So, what can you do?

You can learn to work with what you see, hear and feel and use that to

  1. help your client better understand her options,

  2. why are you are making a particular suggestion

  3. navigate challenging phases

As a maternity nurse, it is important to work within boundaries of what's within your abilities. That doesn't mean that you can't observe what's happening and ask good questions, to help your client find the solutions she needs from the medical professionals.
