What Our Clients Say

…then you may not realize just how thankful we are.  I would rather take the time to tell you exactly what we mean.  Thank you for taking us on as clients and making us feel like friends.  Thank you for taking the time each appointment to make sure all our questions were answered.  Thank you for monitoring my blood pressure so closely and making sure that we were safe.  Thank you for arriving right on time to deliver my baby.  Thank you for being my personal cheerleader through her delivery.  Thank you for applying my lip chap after her birth (will always be remembered!).  Thank you for checking on us after the birth.  Thank you for being available for our emergency.  Thank you for seeing us even when we had to keep rescheduling.Thank you for simply doing your job the best anyone could do!”

I’m not sure how I would have made it through the first half of my pregnancy without your support in getting me the help I needed.  I’m thrilled that I was able to have a home birth again and that everything went so smoothly.  After some complications with I’s birth, your support and preparations really helped me feel comfortable with having another home birth.”

Although it was tough at times, I look back at the experience with nothing but wonderful memories.  It was an amazing process.”

When I think about my birth experience I truly don’t think that I could have done it without you.  Even when I was at my worst, you stayed, you were patient and you never stopped encouraging me.  You stayed by my side and you must have been so tired after all of those hours – please know how much I appreciate that.  You helped bring me the greatest gift I could have ever imagined and I’ll always remember you for that.”

…and support through my pregnancy, labour, birth, and beyond. I feel so lucky to have had you as my midwife.Your extensive knowledge and ability to share it, your dedication to midwifery, and the confidence and humility with which you practice it are inspiring.I cannot thank you enough for your commitment to my birth plan. Through the entire process I felt completely supported in my choices. This gave me the confidence and wherewithal to see it through, even though there were times during labour when I felt like throwing in the towel! Without you, I don’t think my home birth would have happened and I likely would have gone through the rest of my life believing that I was incapable of birthing children vaginally.I am so grateful to you for having made that experience possible for me. You are an exceptional midwife. The profession is lucky to have you.

We appreciated your patience with our many many questions and couldn’t have done it without you.  All-in-all, it was a fun delivery!”

It was a great pleasure to have you involved in the very most important day and days of our lives.  You were fantastic beyond words and we couldn’t be happier.  Thanks for going above and beyond during some of our most challenging times, meeting and exceeding our expectations.  Your wealth of knowledge and commitment to your job and families make you the exceptional midwife that you are.”

…and help you’ve given us before, during and after J’s birth.  We appreciated the information and choices you gave us, your support and advocacy for our wishes and above all, the encouragement you gave us and the time you spent with us.  We always knew that we wanted midwifery care, but we had no idea it would be this amazing.  J is a lucky boy to have been brought into the world by such an incredible team.”

Having a home birth was somewhat daunting but something I would definitely do again! (Note: this family had no OHIP so chose home birth originally to save hospital fees.  They since have had two more home births because they enjoyed the first so much.)

I especially was appreciative of the “Plan for the first month home from NICU”!  I felt truly blessed to have had you as part of that unexpected yet amazing journey!”     

…I was able to have a home birth and I am grateful that we have excellent midwives so close to home and to have options available to us!  Thank you for your time, for being here the night my water broke even though things progressed slowly.  It made everyone so comfortable knowing you were here!  Thank you for talking me through the decisions we needed to make and thank you especially for talking me through my labour!  The way you directed me through it as I was going through it made it a great experience.  I felt so comfortable!  I wish I could do it again.  I will never forget the feeling when I caught her and held her in the pool – it was incredible!”

…to describe how thankful we are for the care you provided us throughout my pregnancy and birth.  We felt supported, informed and confident leading up to M’s birth, which helped to set the stage for the beautiful birth we had.  I wouldn’t want to change a thing and am so grateful for the kindness and care and loving support you provided.  You will forever hold a special place in our hearts and our family.”

  It was an experience we wouldn’t have been able to do without you.  Thank you so much!”

You helped me understand what was happening with my body and my baby far more than I ever knew with O.  I am so proud to tell people that H was born at home – and that is because of you!”

…that has made K’s birth the most beautiful and humbling experience of my life. I will forever remember your reassuring words, “you are safe” and how comforting it was to know that to be true. More than anything, you and Sharon have given me the invaluable gift of learning to trust my body and for that I will always be grateful.”

Thank you so much for your support, compassion and professionalism on our ‘birth day.’  You truly made it an even more wonderful experience.  Your visits after the birth meant more than you can know!  M is 19 weeks now and is a healthy happy girl.”

 … you put into making our birth experience so positive and incredibly successful!  We were really impressed by your professional skills but also your warmth and caring attention you gave to all of us.  Even though the birth didn’t exactly go as we had hoped, your support and reassurance throughout the process made a world of difference to us.”

We are so grateful to have had your expertise and warm presence with us and will be sure to carry it with us to our next birth.  You helped bring out mom’s strength and dad’s love.  We think that G was born with these qualities.  A little champion to meet the world!  We continue to brag about the excellent care of midwives in Ontario.  We’ll be sure to share this tale with G one day.”

…I knew that our paths were meant to cross and that you were the right person to help me bring my baby into the world.  The day N was born was magical but you being by my side through it all made it that much more special.  J and I will remember you FOREVER because of the love you showed us and your incredible dedication to your “job.”  The day did not go as planned, but I am grateful for every minute of the experience.”

… through the pregnancy, birth and R’s first six weeks.  The care your provided was outstanding.  We always felt listened to, well informed and supported.  You helped make the whole experience so much better than we imagined.  We really loved the long appointments and the time you took to give us information, answer our questions and reassure us.  And R’s birth was spectacular.  We’re so glad that he had such a gentle entry to the world and we have such a wonderful birth story to tell.”

 – if that was even possible. You allowed me and gave me the courage to trust myself and my body and I will be forever grateful for that!  Words can’t express what you have done for myself and my family.  I can never recommend you and the clinic enough!!”

In our opinion you have gone above and beyond the call of duty to support us in our times of need.  You were there for us as we became parents for the first time, during the most magical yet challenging time in our lives and we will forever be grateful.”

…that would be able to express the gratitude I have for the beautiful support that you gave to me during T’s birth.  You have such an amazing gift to give!  Actually, the birth of all 3 of our kiddos have your gracious spirit women woven through them.  Thank you for showing me the importance of digging deep and finding my own strength, finding the trust I needed to feel peace, seeing the beauty in what our Creator provides for us in this amazing journey, this beautiful adventure of growing and birthing a baby.”

We are so happy that we chose Generations Midwifery Care.  I want you to know how much I appreciate all of your time and hard work bringing J into the world without any interventions.  I know it wouldn’t  have been possible without all of your help stretching & coaxing, easing the pain & reassuring & encouraging me.  Thank you so much for an amazing birth experience and for your dedication to providing such great care.”

…you provided to us during the pregnancy, the birth and the postnatal period.  It was pretty stressful for us at times but you made it easier.  We appreciate your your time, attention and clinical judgement.”

…& who held our hands through one of the most tumultuous times of our lives.  Thank you for everything – your time, your patience, your guidance, your generous heart & your wisdom. May you continue to do what you do best: welcoming babies & transforming people into parents.”

I was happy the day we left one of the appointments and you were able to explain to J how home birth is a safe birthing option.  You helped me help J to understand and as a result, I was able to have the birth I wanted (without my husband being too worried) except, of course, when he thought he might have to deliver the baby while you were on your way. Hehehe!”
