About Karon
My interest in midwifery began as a child hearing stories from my grandmother who helped delivery babies in the 1940's. My career in maternity care began in 1997 as a Bradley Childbirth educator which I taught for 27 years. I began attending birth as a doula then as a midwifery student shortly afterwards. Since then i have attended over 800 births. My one wish is that I could remember all of those families and babies. They have made up such a large part of my life.
