Dear all, As you will likely know, Choices for Childbirth is currently
run from You may think that you are not skilled enough to help, but
the fact is that no matter if your experience is having birthed a couple of
babies, or that you are a student midwife, Doula or midwife, we need you!!! As
long as you are an MC member, nothing else matters! You will not be required to
give talks or expert commentary, but your hands and passion is what we
need! As an MC member you have a chance to not only empower the
'consumer' out there but also our own members once you have a chance
to realise or explore your own potential J (borrowed
that bit from Deb – thanks!). Also, if that isn’t up your alley, BaBs needs helpers
too - facilitators, midwives and students to get more groups going –
email [EMAIL PROTECTED]
if you are interested. There are a number of MC branches already set up, but there
could be many more, once there is more help with different areas -
fundraising, grant writing, committee positions, mail outs, consumer reps
for hospitals and health services and reviews, birth stories needing
to be told, the list is endless. So even if you feel that you could only
help with making cuppa's or telling your birth story, you never know what
might be – perhaps you may later find confidence in being a branch leader,
part of the national team or end up making a huge difference to women
by being the consumer rep at a local hospital. So, I look forward to your replies – email me and
let’s get Balwyn going again! Here’s to lots of women in the east
getting some of the best birth preparation there is!!! [EMAIL PROTECTED] Best
