The Vital Role of Midwives in Modern Healthcare

In many communities, midwives are the backbone of maternal and newborn health. At Metropolitan School of Nursing and Midwifery, we train future midwives not only to assist in childbirth but to provide holistic care throughout pregnancy, delivery, and the postpartum period.

Midwives play a critical role in:

  • Educating mothers about prenatal and postnatal care
  • Supporting safe and natural childbirth
  • Identifying complications early and collaborating with physicians
  • Offering emotional support to mothers and families
  • Promoting breastfeeding and newborn care

In both rural and urban settings, midwives improve outcomes by providing accessible, respectful, and culturally sensitive care. They’re not just birth attendants—they are educators, advocates, and lifesavers.

At Metropolitan, we are proud to equip our students with both technical competence and compassionate care skills—ensuring they’re ready to make a difference from day one.
