She lived in Darwin for nine years where she and three other midwives became directors of a company called Mobile Midwives NT Pty Ltd. She is passionate about increasing the options of care available for pregnant women that will result in women being joyful and satisfied with their birth experience. Her memoir Mobile Midwives: Transforming Birth Options gives readers an insight into her remarkable midwifery journey, which spans over forty years. By sharing her experiences, Marge hopes to influence midwives to bravely step away from their comfort zone and seek employment in services that offer one-to-one midwifery care. The midwifery insights she has included throughout the book may also provide valuable information to students and midwives. She also hopes the stories will inspire pregnant women to actively seek information about birth so that they understand the process. Being fully informed about what to expect will help to make the birth experience more meaningful and provide increased likelihood of a joyful birth.view less
