Thinking About Midwifery Care?

​

Midwifery care 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, birth, until six weeks post-partum. 

Midwifery care is covered by BC Medical Services Plan (MSP).  Appointments with midwives are longer and occur slightly more frequently than visits with your family doctor. We invite you to make a self-referral to our service.

Our Services ​

​

We provide you with expert care and ongoing support during your pregnancy and birth. We will oversee your regular tests, such as ultrasounds. Once baby comes, we follow and support you and the new baby for six weeks, with home visits for up to two weeks after birth.

We also provide the option to request after-birth (post-partum) care only.  This includes home visits and ongoing care of you and your baby for up to six weeks after birth. This service is ideal for women who need breastfeeding support and additional care.

Blossom Midwives 

​

Blossom Birth Program is a small, two-midwife practice. By alternating between two midwives, you will become acquainted with both midwives. Midwives Sara Povey and Lori Miller have been practicing midwifery together for over ten years, and have become close enough to complete each other's sentences.
