Midwife-led care

Meet Narelle

Your Midwife in Cairns

At The Midwife's Nest, we're led by Narelle Ashworth, a Registered Nurse and Endorsed Midwife (endorsed since 2017) with a Master of Midwifery and prescribing qualifications. Narelle has worked across public and private healthcare in Cairns for many years, with a particular interest in fertility and early pregnancy care. She's a member of the Queensland Nurses and Midwives' Union (QNMU), the Australian College of Midwives and the Fertility Society of Australia and New Zealand, and recently attended the ESHRE fertility conference in Paris to continue developing her clinical knowledge. The Midwife's Nest was created to give Cairns women more time, continuity and individualised support throughout pregnancy and the early postnatal period, alongside their GP and the Cairns public maternity service. If you're ready to talk about your antenatal care or postnatal support, we'd love to hear from you.
