Congrats to the UBC Midwifery Class of 2026 who graduated last weekend! A few of these amazing students did placements with our clinic over recent years, and many of you were cared for by them. Thank you to our clients for supporting student learning by involving students in your care, and wishing these fledgeling midwives all the best as they set out into clinical practice! 🎓🐣💕

No this isn’t a snow-flake promo….this is amniotic fluid! ❄️💦 This beautiful pattern seen via microscope is called ferning, which is caused by crystallization of salts and proteins present in amniotic fluid as it dries on a microscope slide. Midwives and physicians assess for this when we suspect someone’s water broke.🔬🌺
Midwife Ash snapped this amazing pic while assessing a client whose water broke this weekend- should we frame it for their little one’s nursery?! 😜💕

Midwife Margaret discharges sweet Baby R from Sage team! We are going to miss this sweet family and wish them all the best 🥰❤️

We are happy to share the great news that Heather G has been granted a work visa! MASSIVE THANKS to everyone who wrote letters of support for Heather and spoke out for us. It truly made a HUGE difference.
We are especially pleased to report that our BC Minister of Health, Josie Osborne, former Victoria MP Laurel Collins, current Victoria MP Will Greaves, and Premier David Eby all spoke out in support of Heather. Thank you for listening, and valuing maternal and newborn health.🙏🏼
Heather is back home in Scotland for the time being. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 We hope she will return to us soon. In the meantime, we are so grateful to be part of such a strong and vibrant community. Thank you all for your support. We are so lucky to be your midwives. 🙏🏼💕

Friends, we are asking again for your help as we advocate for midwife Heather Gilchrist’s post-graduate work visa to be reinstated immediately. Time is running out.
Please continue to send letters to government - even if you have already done so. We have a link for a client letter and a healthcare provider letter; look for the links in our bio. We are grateful that that the office of BC Minister of Health Josie Osborne has been actively engaged in trying to advocate for Heather. Unfortunately, our local MP Will Greaves (Victoria) has been silent. The Midwives Collective has been serving Victoria families for 15 years. We are proud that our clients reflect the diversity of our beautiful city. Heather has successfully completed all provincial midwifery registration requirements and federal immigration requirements. She’s also a fabulous midwife & fantastic colleague! Please help us tell Minister Greaves that maternity care matters, women’s health matters, families matter. Thank you for your support and please help us spread the word!
