About Blossom Midwifery
Our Philosophy
At Blossom Midwifery, we believe that maternity care should be client-centred. We strive to provide care that is tailored to each client's unique needs and preferences. Our goal is to empower our patients to take an active role in their health and well-being.
Midwifery
Midwifery has been a regulated profession in British Columbia since 1998. Midwives are university educated and professionally trained to serve as your primary healthcare care provider for the entire duration of your pregnancy, labour, birth, and until six weeks postpartum.
Midwifery care is fully covered by BC Medical Services Plan (MSP).
Our Care
We provide you with expert care and ongoing support during your pregnancy and birth. We order and oversee regular tests (such as ultrasounds and bloodwork) and interpret/discuss your results with you.
After you give birth, we follow and support you and your newborn for up to six weeks after delivery.
Our postpartum services include feeding support whether you plan to breastfeed of formula feed..
