Midwifery Diploma is a Level 3 Advanced programme designed to give learners a strong foundation in maternity, pregnancy, and newborn care. This course explores how midwives support women and families through every stage of pregnancy, birth, and postnatal recovery while delivering safe, compassionate, and professional care. Learners gain insight into how modern midwifery combines clinical knowledge with emotional support to ensure positive outcomes for both mother and baby.

Throughout the programme, students develop an understanding of female anatomy, fetal development, and the physical and emotional changes that occur during pregnancy. The course also covers antenatal care, including health assessments, nutrition, screening, and emotional wellbeing, helping learners understand how to support expectant mothers in a holistic way. During intrapartum care, students explore labour stages, pain management, fetal monitoring, and emergency responses, building awareness of how midwives operate in high-pressure situations.

Postnatal and neonatal care form another important part of the Midwifery Diploma. Learners study how mothers recover after birth, how newborns are assessed, and how breastfeeding and early bonding are supported. The course also introduces neonatal health conditions and intensive care principles, helping learners understand how vulnerable babies receive specialist attention.

Professional standards, ethics, and evidence-based practice are woven throughout the programme. Students explore legal responsibilities, cultural awareness, reflective practice, and how research improves maternity services. This ensures learners understand not only how midwifery is delivered, but also how quality, safety, and continuous improvement are maintained in healthcare environments.

By the end of the Midwifery Diploma, learners will have the knowledge to understand maternity care, support families, and contribute to high standards in healthcare settings. The course also builds a strong foundation for further study or entry-level roles in maternity and neonatal services.

All learners receive a free course completion certificate upon finishing the programme. Multiple premium certificate and transcript options are also available for purchase if you wish to strengthen your professional profile. Students also benefit from 5-star rated support available 24/7 via email, ensuring guidance is always available.
