@Jamari Bishop thanks so much for your reply. I found the site thru google and Im waiting for the hacking stuff now. Looks like it's gonna take quite some time so I will get back to you later with my results.
I just subscribed to your channel and it helps me so much- I’m in year 10 at school and really want to be a midwife! Good to know what I’m letting myself into! 💕
Starting next month....ahhh can't wait to experience everything. I must be the only weirdo who's loooking forward to my first assignment and placement 🙄
I'm so happy for you!! And trust me you're not. I feel like everyone is excited about starting placement but also a little scared of the responsibility. But you might be the only one looking foreward to doing assignments 😂
Hi! I’m 12 years Old and I really want to be a midwife! I want to be there for women and support them but I’m so scared for doing the courses and if I’ll be good enough :/ ik university and stuff is still quite a while for me but I’m still scared :(
Lia Plunkett hey I’ve just started a midwifery course and I was the same as you, I was scared and uni seemed miles away but it’s nice, people help and family do a lot more for you than you’d imagine for education, if I can do it you can do it promise
I love your videos and right now im currentley in yr 11 and i would like to be a midwife. After yr11 i will go and do a levels and in a levels i will do health and social care which is equivalent to 3 a levels and then go to uni which then i could get a degree ❤so watching all your videos inspire me to become one thank you very much
That is exactly what I’m doing now, for Health and Social Care be ready for the assignments and make sure to keep on track with them, also revision for exams is key and placement is not that bad.
Hi, i’m due to be starting a midwifery course in september. I was wondering if placement always starts a few months after you start uni, or if you go straight in to it? Also how many hours and days of placement/lectures do you get a week and do you get any days off? Thanks so much-love your videos!!
Hey, it always starts a few months after the course so that you can learn the correct procedures. However, I'm not sure about the integrated courses but that's how it is in my block structure. Again. my course is in blocks, so when in uni blocks it's 5 days a week 9-4. When I'm on placement it's either 4 10hour shifts a week or 3 12.5hour shifts a week. So yes there are days off 😊
I'm starting my access course now for uni to study midwifery, could you please discuss how you found the course and how you managed to schedule this in with work ? Thank you!! Loving these videos xx
Hi Louisa. I was wondering if you could remember when you was on the access course how you found answering “explain....” questions at distinction level. Would be huge help for any tips - I’m really trying to get my head around getting to the point and not waffling or describing way too much. Thank you! Love your channel. 😊
Aww, thanks. I actually cannot remember I’m so bad at writing essays because of dyslexia. To this day I still waffle. I really don’t know how I got any distinctions let alone the amount I got. If I can find some old essays I’ll come back to the comment and let you know
I'm glad I can help. This is what someone told me and now I'm passing it on to whoever asks... Be happy, be kind, be compassionate, smile more than you usually would, and just be you. Maybe do a little research on what's going on with the NHS and midwifery in the UK and you should be good. I hope that helps and good luck!! Let me know how it goes xx
Just wondering are you allowed to voice record lectures with a recording device? I’ve always been curious about this because then you could take more notes at home.
Hi, lovely informing video thank you. But I wanted to become a midwife and I don’t know where to start. Is it possible you can do a video in the steps to take to become a student midwife and what qualification you need to have I’ve search non stop and I still don’t know if midwifery requires sit in exam.
Associates Degree in Nursing ➡️ Take NCLEX to become an RN ➡️ Bachelors Degree in Nursing ➡️ Masters Degree for Midwifery ➡️ Pass the National Certification Exam offered by the American Midwifery Certification Board to become a CNM.
I apologise if you’ve already mentioned this, I’ve only just discovered your channel! I was just wondering what kind of A-Levels you’d suggest for the midwifery course? I’m currently in year 10 and am yet to apply for sixth form, however I’m really not sure what kind of subjects I should be looking at. Any advice? Good luck to you for the future xx
No problem. I wouldn't know as I did completely random A-levels/A-levels that were semi-targeted for photography. However, I know Biology and probably sociology would be really good ones. And thank you so much xx
Any science, Biology is usually needed, but do chemistry, psychology, even PE anything like that, or English Language is a good one aswell as long as you can transfer the skills to midwifery
If you look on the university websites you will see there entry requirements, I was surprised to find out that even at the top midwifery uni's that I looked at online biology wasn't required. Some Universities (such as UEA) say it will be an advantage but not a requirement. However something such as a social science e.g. sociology and other subjects which have transferrable skills e.g. English are useful. They may ask for one of the following from a list i.e a university may say you must have one a level from the following list which the list could include sociology, biology , psychology , chemistry etc or even PE. So if you are not particularly strong in a 'traditional' science , don't sweat it you can still get on just make sure you check the requirements and email universities if you are unsure.
Hi I’m quite late to this video but I was wondering if you have any tips for getting onto a midwifery course? I currently study spanish, product design and maths a levels, and I am worried that I will be at a disadvantage as I don’t do a related science.
Hey, try doing some volunteering in maternity, if you can’t get any there than anywhere in healthcare. This will show your eagerness and also that you are able to care for people, which you need in this course
Hey just discovered you channel. I’m 18 and currently doing a level 3 health and social care course. During your midwife course do they mix biology with it??
hi! do you got paid for the hours you're doing placement like other apprenticeships? because i was wondering how you were able to pay without currently working outside of school/placement. as a year 10 wanting to go into midwifery, i've been loving your videos
Before the pandemic no we weren’t getting paid because it’s not an apprenticeship. We had student loan. Things have changed though. at the beginning of the pandemic we did get paid, especially 3rd years, however I don’t think they are at the moment. They did also introduce a £5,000 bursary as well
Man i would love more than nothing to be a midwife but the thought of having to stitch some mums up after tearing or an episiotomy scares me 😅 does performing that and giving needles get easier with practice?
I actually haven’t sutured a woman yet but from what my best friend has told me it definitely gets easier to understand and perform. I was never scared about taking blood or giving injections so that part has always been fine for me
Good luck with your interview! I actually didn't get to the interview part for Southbank so I don't know how much help I'd be but they usual ask questions that would test your character and maybe know a little about what's going on in the NHS and midwifery in the UK
Where can I get the Midwifery Uniforms and the ans all the quitment and the books also csn people with Down's Syndrome go in to Midwifery as well also would I be able to study Support in the class with me as well to Support me a long and I am Downs sydrome myself and my name is Helen cheetham
Hey Helen, you get given the uniform when you start university. Probably a couple of weeks into uni. You can get the equipment you need on different websites online. The books from the university library or from bookstores. You probably would be able to go into Midwifery but I don’t know. You’d have to ask universities and see what they say.
I’m due to start my access course this September, was wondering how many credits you need to pass the course for uni, I also have 2 young children of my own, a little worried that everything might be too much, but I’m so excited to start!!
Hey, It depends on what university you want to go to but the lowest I think I've seen was 45 level 3 credits at a Merit. And you mothers are amazing! All the parents in my access course and all of the ones in my uni cohort manage to do the course and go on placement. It still amazes me how they can manage it but they just do 😊And good luck with the start of your course. Let me know how it goes 👍🏾
Every university has different requirements and are looking for different things. What subjects you should do and the grades you need you can find on all of the university websites. It's best if you look at them.
Hey! Good luck with graduation. It sounds like you live in America. If that's right then I'm not quite sure. I know in a lot of states you have to be a nurse-midwife or are labour and delivery nurse. However, I know that there are certified midwives but you'd have to look up how to do that as I wouldn't be to sure. Sorry
I’m in year 13 doing my last exam and I did biology,English language and I did chemistry for a year,dropped it as a subject then did applied science for the last year.So that was two A Levels and a Btec Certificate(equivalent to an AS).You don’t have to do all A Levels,Btec holds the same weight. This is all in the UK
If you’re based in a hospital on a ward it’s usually 12 hours three tomes a week. However, there are certain areas where it’s 9/10 hours four times a week
I am doing my access course online and in my first graded assignment, I got a pass. But basically, by calculating the grades even if the first one is a pass I won't be able to make it with the entry requirement. Can you please tell me how the whole prosses work if I don't get "45 Level 3 credits: 30 must be from units awarded at Distinction, and 12 Level 3 credits at Merit" will I still be able to get it?
Hey, that was just your first assignment don't stress too much about it. I didn't get my 33 distinctions that were needed for my uni but I scored well in my interview and tests. I guess it depends on what university you want to go to and how flexible they are in letting people in based on their interviews and tests. There are also unis that except lower grades or you can apply through Clearing in the summer if you don't get into any of the universities you've applied for... If this doesn't make sense just let me know. I'm running late to uni whilst typing this, sorry 😊
Oh don't worry about it. I was just worried I wasn't makinf sense since I wasn't really thinking. I hope to hear from you in August with some good news
I'm in the middle of doing the access course and don't think that going to uni is going to be for me. If I'm struggling now what am I going to do when I'm at uni 😩
I'm so happy you're finally doing your access course I feel like it's been ages. Let me tell you a secret. Because you're doing an access course you have a little heads up on what's to come when it comes to the content hopefully. Plus, there are WAY fewer assignments which takes some of the stress and pressure off of everything. You'll do fine! xx

@@BeingLouisa Is Sociology the same as Health and Social Care?
No it is not. Sociology is more about how society works and what influences the behaviours of others

If u dont mind my asking Y did u do both a levels and access course?
Because I wanted to be a photographer for a long time, which is what I did in A levels but I didn't get into uni
what are the qualifications if u want to apply for a job in the UK as a midwifery?
A midwifery degree
How many yrs takes to study midwife at university ?
In England it’s a 3 year university degree with half your time spent on placement
Do you get paid during placement
No you don't. Unless you're a registered nurse and doing the 18/20 month course. You can get a student loan and I believe a bursary now as well
A midwife students can do part time jobs? It's difficult?
Some do part time jobs if they are lucky enough to have a boss that allows them to have a flexible rota but it is hard
It is bloody hard
what do i need to be a midwife?
Health and social science child care I just picked my options and the teachers told me to pick those to become a midwife
I’m in year 13 doing my last exam and I did biology,English language and I did chemistry for a year,dropped it as a subject then did applied science for the last year.So that was two A Levels and a Btec Certificate(equivalent to an AS).You don’t have to do all A Levels,Btec holds the same weight.
