Clinical Midwife Cover Letter Template

Dear Hiring Manager, Opening hook In my years as a Clinical Midwife, I have supported women through pregnancy and birth in a way that respects their choices and delivers practical care. At my last role I trained a small team to use a standard antenatal checklist, which helped reduce missed screenings by 30 percent and improved patient confidence during care planning. Skills alignment I bring strong skills in antenatal assessment, labour support, and postnatal care, with a focus on clear patient education and collaboration with obstetricians, GPs, and lactation consultants. I recognise early signs of potential complications and follow evidence-based pathways to keep both mother and baby safe. I value transparent communication with patients and families and I can adapt to care in hospital, home, or community settings. Evidence story During a busy shift last year I coordinated care for a woman with gestational hypertension and uncertainty around fetal wellbeing. I arranged timely monitoring, coordinated with the on-call team, and supported the woman through decisions about labour and delivery. The outcome was a healthy baby and a well supported mother, with care notes and a postnatal plan that helped the family settle at home smoothly. Professional close I am available for discussion about this role at [Company Name] and would be glad to share more about how my hands-on approach fits with your team. I can start with a flexible handover and am happy to arrange a time to talk. Kind regards, [Your Name]
