​​​​​​​The Mentoring in Midwifery (MiM) Program aims to develop a reciprocal learning relationship that expands opportunities for connection, learning and growth for midwives and midwifery students.

​​The MiM Program has been developed by The Nursing and Midwifery Office (NaMO), NSW Ministry of Health, and is a collaboration with Professor Belinda Dewar and Dr Edel Roddy (Scotland), underpinned by Appreciative Inquiry, Caring Conversations and the Senses Framework. MiM is a workforce initiative developed to attract and retain our midwifery workforce now and into the future.

The program, and associated workshops and resources, have been developed in response to:

  • outcomes of the ESME ​(Exploring Student Midwives Experiences) Study
  • evidence base (ICM guidelines and other related evidence)
  • previous work by the Scottish team in developing positive learning cultures across health and social care
  • learning from the Mentoring in Midwifery working group, including input from the NSW Midwifery Leaders and Managers network.​
