midwifery apprenticeship

How can we get a midwifery apprenticeship from the NHS? Is it better to do an apprenticeship or get a uni degree? I am planning to do a career in midwifery and I want to know more about it.

You'll have to see if the maternity unit/ hospital trust has available funding for a apprenticeship midwifery course and then hope they will take you on.
Difference between apprenticeship and university degree is you'll be paid throughout your apprenticeship coursework unlike your normal university degree course when you not paid except for any learning grants available and student loans.
I know with the university degree they will arrange all your placements for you, not sure how the apprenticeship side works for when you have to do placements as you may have to do that yourself but obviously get all the necessary information required before choosing.
Personal if you rather do the university midwifery course then go ahead and apply for it and hopefully you'll get a opportunity to go to university and become a midwife in 3 years.
I have only dealt with students coming through the university degree for midwifery.

Thank you soo much for the help. I would like to know about what are the daily jobs that midwifes have to do and the reality of midwifes: the stress, the placements and everything in general.

Hi
You are welcome 🤗 🤗
Daily tasks are - generally obs ( blood pressure, temperature and checking how the mum is doing and where necessary checking the new baby is feeding etc ok.
Then you have bed making, assisting with handing meals etc out at correct time of day - then correcting the emptys and return to trolley, you might assist with the medication round if anyone requires these, also where someone may need assist with bathing you generally help with this, taking notes when new arrivals comes in to the unit - check there file and ask them what if any problems that they might have,
Another one is if your patient requires a emergency C-section then you normally assist with them to theatre and maybe write down everything on the board....
Every individual midwife has there own way on dealing with daily tasks and how they handle the situation.
Midwifing can be a stressful job at times - this varies with the different situations that you come across with this job ( everything could go smoothly but you'll also have your difficult cases with births as each one is unique).
In general midwifing is a very rewarding job when you see the new parents very happy with there new arrival of baby 🐥 🐥 🍼 . There's no two days the same.

I am really sorry for asking soo many questions 😭
But is are there specific A levels that I should do for a midwife degree for uni in London ? Or specific things I should do like volunteering, which I want to do but idk how and were in London I can do it?
Btw thank you for answering all my questions 🤧🫶💞. I am really sorry for asking too many 💌

Below are the minimum requirements for midwifery....
Some universities will ask for a science subject and you'll also get some universities asking for biology as the necessary science subject, check what your chosen universities are requiring ok before you apply.
What Gcses do you need to be a midwife in the UK.....
Applicants must demonstrate a broad general education including five GCSES/iGCSES at Grade B or 6. These may include your English, Science and Mathematics if at Grade B or 6. English Language, Mathematics and Science are required at GCSE/iGCSE level with a minimum Grade of C or 4.
A-level. ABB including a science such as Biology, Chemistry or Applied Science.. Applicants who are not studying biology or chemistry A-level may apply if they are studying another relevant subject, such as Psychology, Sociology or Health and Social Care.
Any experience in a nursing sector would be fine for your experience ( not always required but good to have some sort of experience).
Unfortunately I don't know anywhere in London as I'm a NHS Scotland trained midwife.

Thank you soo much for taking your time to answer my questions. It really helped me to understand more about midwifery. I really appreciate you help. 💕
