Midwives are health professionals whose
speciality is helping women give birth
normally, with dignity and joy.

Midwifery care has safe, excellent outcomes
with much less need for medical interventions
like induction, episiotomy, forceps and cesarean section.

In the majority of Canadian provinces today,
midwifery is a recognised part of the health care system.
Midwives attend births in hospitals, birth centres and at home.

Choosing a midwife to support and care for you
can make childbirth one of the best experiences of your life.
