Anneliese Clayton

Midwife

After completing a double degree in Nursing and Midwifery at Deakin University in 2009, I consolidated both my nursing and midwifery skills at Monash Medical Centre in Clayton.

Pursing my interest in indigenous health, I worked in the Northern Territory for two years.  I experienced a wide variety of challenges at the Royal Darwin Hospital and fell in love with the climate and the beautiful country of the Larrakia People.

I started working at The Bays Hospital in 2015 where I became an Associate Unit Manager on the maternity ward. I now share my time between working as an After-Hours Co-Ordinator at the Bays Hospital and as a midwife in the rooms of Bundle Women’s Health. I thoroughly enjoy this role, providing antenatal care to the local women and their families.

Now with two children of my own, my partner Jack and I have settled on the Mornington Peninsula. Raising our kids on the beautiful beaches the Peninsula offers and exploring all the local sights.

After having my son at The Bays, I was truly able to appreciate the unique quality of care and point of difference The Bays provides to its patients.

The expertise and confidence of the staff is established early, in the clinic by the Obstetricians. This is continued throughout the entire pregnancy and birth experience, and then postnatally by the delightful midwives on the maternity ward.

I feel privileged to look after families at the original Mornington Bush Hospital of the Mornington Peninsula whose ethos is consistent with my own. Which is to provide compassionate, evidence-based care to the community in the Peninsula’s only private, non-for-profit hospital.
