Veronica Ingram
I'm Veronica. I am a midwife and mother to 4 children. I trained as a midwife when my children were babies. I can't believe I am old enough to be writing here that they are now starting to move out of home. The time has gone very quickly! I am kept very busy between being a midwife and all the general craziness of having 4 children.
I have always lived out in country Victoria and I am proud and excited to be a part of the Warragul MAMA clinic. I absolutely love the community out here and that I get to continue to keep up with the women whose births I attend because I see them at the supermarket or down the street. I will also be doing some work out of the Hampton clinic, although less likely to be doing a supermarket catch up there.
Before I worked at MAMA I worked as a Midwifery Educator, providing training and support to other midwives. I was also a homebirther myself so I've got lots of hot tips and different experiences to share. Looking forward to meeting some of you and sharing in your journeys.

Hey, I’m Cally. When I was 16, after watching a birth video, I decided I was going to be a midwife. Once I finished school it took me seven years to complete my studies, during which time I gave birth to my own three children. Since completion of my studies in 2017 I have worked as a hospital-based midwife, across antenatal, birth and postnatal care, as well working the special care nursery.
Outside of work, I feel most of my time is spent being a ‘Mum taxi’ but I thoroughly enjoy watching my kids play sports and enjoy playing netball myself, and when there’s a spare moment in life I love to continue to grow and build our family garden aiming one day to not be so reliant on the supermarkets.
My passion for midwifery and caring for women grows and grows every day. My passion has outgrown working in the hospital system and I am excited about the next chapter of my career, caring for women on a more holistic level and supporting them throughout their entire pregnancy, birth and early parenthood journey. I am very grateful and excited to be a part of the MAMA team!
