Along with the above qualifications I feel most proud of my personal achievement of having 8 natural births.
Two hospital births, two mid wife led unit birth and four home births. Three of my births were entirely unmedicated.
I can honestly say that what you learn through personal experience does exceed academic training!
With each birthing experience I learned what to do differently the next time. I learnt about the pros and cons of each environment and how to decide which is the best location to birth in.
