Midwife-led support for employees through pregnancy, maternity leave, and return to work
Helping organisations to better support employees through pregnancy - improving confidence, wellbeing, and retention
Bridging the gap between NHS care and the workplace to support women during the critical drop-off point in their careers
Why Midwife Connect matters for organisations
Pregnancy is a significant life stage that can impact employee wellbeing, confidence, and performance at work.
Without the right support, organisations may see:
-
Increased sickness absence
-
Challenges with retention and return to work
-
Reduced confidence and engagement
-
Gender inequality in leadership roles
Midwife Connect provides consistent, specialist support to help employees feel informed, supported, and confident throughout their pregnancy journey.

Why Midwife Connect was created
Founded by a practicing midwife
Midwife Connect was created to bridge the gap between NHS maternity care and the support employees need during pregnancy and return to work.
While NHS care provides essential clinical support, many individuals need more time, continuity, and space to talk through their experiences - particularly when balancing pregnancy with work.
