Jess Kivell, Primary Care Midwives

Hi, I’m Jess! I am thrilled to join the Access Midwives team and look forward to supporting you and your family through pregnancy, birth and postpartum. I strive to empower my clients in making the best decisions for themselves, so feel free to ask all the questions!

I graduated with honours from the Midwifery Education Program at McMaster University. Prior to midwifery, I worked at a Physiotherapy clinic after completing my bachelor’s degree in Kinesiology. I continue to carry my passion for physical activity and holistic healthcare with me in my midwifery practice.

In my free time, you can find me rollerblading at Confederation Park or hiking the Bruce trail with my dog Milo. I also enjoy board games, DIY projects and hanging out with my cat Colonel Mustard.
