Midwifery care at HOneycomb

YOU ARE WELCOME!

Pregnancy and birth is often a vulnerable time. At Honeycomb we have a long history of supporting ALL families - just as they are! We understand each person and family is unique and we are committed to   to providing safe, competent and sensitive care to clients of every 

race, ethnicity,  sexual orientation, gender or religious minority, or who have a disability. 

 At Honeycomb Midwives we provide care under a model and philosophy which includes the belief that women have the right to make informed choices. We support women’s choices by learning about you and your values, and by providing you with up-to-date information about health care options so you can make the best choice for you and your family.
We provide a low intervention style of care that seeks to avoid any unnecessary use of drugs or technology. Our midwives help mothers cope during labour with breathing techniques, emotional support, position changes, water therapy and massage. In some cases, the use of drugs, epidurals and other technology is necessary, and midwifery clients use them if needed. Other times medications and technologies are used based on client preference after a thorough informed discussion about benefits and risks.
We believe that each woman and each birth is unique and should be respected and supported as such. A midwife will be with you through your pregnancy and postpartum period to answer questions and provide emotional, medical and educational support.
