Thank you to everyone who came out to visit with us at the picnic.
Looking forward to 2024 already !
The midwife visits were as meaningful to me as any other part of my pregnancy journey. Just a super positive experience.
a super positive experience.
“This is a dedicated team who really cares about safety and quality of birth and pregnancy and postpartum experience.”
“The midwives’postpartum care is second to none. One of the most challenging and confusing times for new parents…first time or not…was made exponentially easier thanks to the support and incredible care and knowledge of our midwives”
Incredible support and care postpartum
“Without my midwives help I would not have been able to master breastfeeding. I’m so glad we were able to solve the problem and continue to breastfeed.”
“I couldn’t imagine giving birth without midwives. You were so helpful.”
“We were very impressed with the level of care provided leading up to the delivery of our daughter.”
I felt reassured during labour just knowing my midwife was there. I had confidence in their knowledge and experience.
“We are extremely satisfied with the care received from pregnancy to postpartum and will be choosing midwives for our next pregnancy. Great work!”
“In the end, my midwife delivered my baby, but while I was under the doctor’s care, she stood next to me and was always supportive. I loved my experience with the midwives and will definitely choose them again for a second pregnancy.”
My care was transferred to Doctor during labor and for delivery. My midwife explained the reasoning and was a great support and advocate for my wishes!
