marieh Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 Hello im Marie, im 19 years old and currently training as a student midwife. Once qualified im desperate to go down under! At the moment its about 3 years away (far too long for my liking). At the moment im just doing lots of reading and researching about life in Australia. Infact I spend more time doing that than I do studying! I just wanted to say hello to everyone and ask if anyone has any information, specifically about midwifery in Australia. Thanks a lot Marie :smile: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marieh Posted January 25, 2008 Author Share Posted January 25, 2008 Thanks Cal. Its things like that which make me glad im starting to look now. Im sure theres so many things I dont know. One question I did have to anyone was about partners. I have a boyfriend and IF we are still together when I want to make the move(you never know what might happen!) he is keen to come as well. He doesnt have a 'skill' hes sort of just plodding along not doing an awfull lot, just working in the local garden centre and he is unqualified. If he doesnt have a skill when we want to go would we have to be married for him to be able to come with me? Thanks again Mariexx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest ozzielass Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 Good luck to you Marie, don't think you will regret a move to Aust., lots of opportunities. Can't say I know much - or anything about nursing/midwifery - but I am sure someone on this site will be able to help? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
