‘Neonatal Care Essentials for Nursing and Midwifery’, published in 2025, is an openly published and first-in-Australia resource for student midwives and nurses. It aims to provide an entry level understanding of the role of the nurse/midwife in the neonatal environment and is uniquely structured around the key concepts of warm, sweet, pink, and calm. In this conversation, Jacqui shares her stories of creating the book, how it’s impacting students’ learning, and how it’s shaping her own teaching practice.
