Sibelle, with her enormous expertise and knowledge of the craft of midwifery, is a fantastic support to our clients. She is very much appreciated by both clients and me who have the privilege to work with her. She is an obvious choice as this month’s summer consultant.

With a total of 994 births she has been responsible for, in 6 months she will celebrate 25 years as a midwife!
Did you always know you wanted to be a midwife?
– No, it was something that came up when I was 22 years old. I had always wanted to become a veterinarian. I lived in Södertälje and was offered a position at Astra’s small animal department as a zookeeper. They did tests to make sure you weren’t allergic and it turned out that I was. Then I thought, what am I going to be now? I wanted a down-to-earth profession and came across Midwifery.

What mission are you on now?
– I am in Eksjö. I was educated in Huddinge and had previously been there for 18 years. When I decided to quit my job and go freelance, I longed for the smaller clinics. During the summer there has been a fast pace all the time. The regular staff is incredibly supportive.

What is the best thing about working as a freelance consultant?
– You can organize your own time in a different way, decide your time off in a different way. That’s a huge advantage.

Why have you chosen to work specifically for Helsebemanning?
– I started at Helsebemanning when my consultant manager Jenny started there. I started slowly in 2016 via another temp agency and then in the autumn of ’18 I quit completely. From October – 22 I will invoice through my own company under the name Midwife Sibelle AB.
