The Midwives' Clinic of EYDM is offering our Newborn 101 course! This class is designed for new parents or folks who are having another child and want a refresher course. We offer the same class each month so you can take it any time after 30 weeks of gestation. This class is taught by Sarah Leslie, a registered full-time midwife who works at The Midwives' Clinic of EYDM. She teaches this class to help new and returning parents feel more comfortable with their new family member!

Midwives are health professionals who provide complete care to pregnant and postpartum clients in a community setting. The path to midwifery is not a simple one. It begins with the midwifery program, a very selective, immersive and often grueling four to six year post-secondary program.

Being a midwifery student is both challenging and rewarding. It has added chaos and uncertainty to our day to day life, but we wouldn’t have it any other way. This past May, we both graduated from the Midwifery Education Program (MEP) at McMaster University, and we could not be happier.

Sixteen years ago, on December 27th, the first baby was born with the help of midwives from The Midwives Clinic of East York-Don Mills. He surprised everyone, especially his parents, by being born 4 weeks early.

During pregnancy, your body goes through a lot a of changes. As the weeks go by, you feel how this little person is growing inside of you. It is understandable to do whatever it takes to have a healthy pregnancy.

It’s amazing how quickly the 6 weeks after the birth of your baby will go and sometimes it’s hard to say goodbye to your midwives.
