"Where to begin, my experience from pregnancy to postpartum was everything I ever wanted for my second pregnancy, after a somewhat traumatic first. I had the pleasure of being supported by the Pink team: Elise, Amanda, Madeleine and student Hania and wow what an incredible, kind, knowledgeable and supportive group of women! I appreciated being able to meet with each midwife multiple times throughout my prenatal appointments. Despite how busy everyone was, I never felt rushed during my appointments and always felt supported and informed. Hania, you were an incredible student and families will be so lucky to have you as their care provider in the future - best of luck! A special thank you to the reception team, always providing a welcoming atmosphere with big smiles right when you walk in the door! And a final thank you to Elise for sticking it out for hours on end during my never ending labour . I never felt so calm and at ease during such an emotional and physically exhausting time. You're truly the BEST! There aren't enough words or stars to caption how amazing Access Midwives and the Pink team are - THANK YOU!"

"I just want to thank Erin for her quick response to my concerns this morning. She answered my page right away and after a full night shift stayed to start my check up at McMaster. I also want to thank Eliza, who is not on my team but took over after Erin went home and provided me with some great advice for exercises I can do to help myself through this pregnancy. You were both so wonderful and calming."

"From prenatal to postpartum, Access Midwives has been an absolute pleasure to be under the care of. We were fortunate to have such a variety of members in our care team - originally we had three midwives, one of which went on her own maternity leave so was replaced by another, we met another midwife during labour who assisted, and postpartum we met a couple more who covered our team while they went to deliver more babies! Not to mention the lovely ladies at the front desk of the clinic who always met us with the brightest smiles and positive attitudes. Tamara Youngberg, whom we were incredibly happy and lucky to have, was the midwife on our team who delivered our baby. She advocated for us and ensured we were well taken care of in hospital. Her confidence, humour, and knowledge of all things surrounding prenatal, labour, delivery and postpartum made us feel calm and capable throughout the entire process. The learning curve of parenthood is beyond challenging but the convenience of having multiple avenues of contact with our team made our lives significantly easier when looking for answers and supports. At one point, our baby was experiencing some trouble where we required more attention, and we were consistently met with such assistance. Our team was prompt and provided us great solutions resulting in a quick recovery. Overall, the staff at Access Midwives are extremely knowledgeable and compassionate, we felt very well taken care of under their care and look forward to having them deliver more of our babies! Thank you!"

"I am a FTM and I am so grateful for Access midwives, specially my Orange Team - Kristen, Jess and Beth and the wonderful role they played in bringing my baby boy in this world! They are such amazing and powerful ladies.My pregnancy, delivery and postpartum journey has been nothing but amazing and so eventful. Wanted to share all the details so hang tight 😄 I would start with thanking the front desk ladies. Both the ladies were so efficient, friendly, polite and amazing. Each time I had entered their clinic they have always welcomed me (and everyone else) with a warm smile. Efficient in check-in and check-out process and the clarity with which they provide instructions for appointments were really appreciated by me and my husband! My prenatal journey was pretty straightforward. Appointments were thorough, with ample time to discuss topics relevant to each stage of pregnancy. Throughout the 40 weeks I got to meet all 3 midwives multiple times which gave me ease and confidence to work with them unlike in a hospital. My Orange team provided continuous guidance and resources which was really helpful. My labor and delivery journey was far more eventful than my entire pregnancy. Jess was kind enough to come see me when my labor started at my house, this saved us from that extra drive or unnecessary nervousness that would come from rushing to hospital and coming back specially for me cause this was my first time. The challenge was I wouldn't dilate beyond the halfway mark and my baby decided to release meconium. We noticed it when my water broke. This is where my team played an important role, where even though we had to deviate from my birth preference, there wasn't even a minute where I felt uninformed or being rushed into anything. The next steps were always discussed with me and my consent was taken before changing the course. This was so crucial for me and my labor and delivery journey. The calmness, guidance and support that I got from Jess during the process was incredible and I have so much love for her. Thank you Jess! Huge Respect! For my postpartum journey, Kristen (she was my life savior and my favorite) went the extra mile to help us with everything that we needed and we are so grateful for her care and support. She patiently without any judgement guided me through the process of breastfeeding - which is a fulfilling but challenging task in those initial days. Kristen's care, professionalism, friendliness and passion for the job absolutely made my experience as a new mother so much easier. I would wait each day for her visit during the recovery because just seeing her always brought a smile and some ease to me. Thank you and Love you Kristen! Huge Respect! My home visits were all so smooth and Beth visited us twice even while she was supporting other births. She gave us the good news we wanted, where my baby was back to his original birth weight within the initial few days and recovered from his Jaundice. Thank you so much Beth and huge respect for your professionalism! I will have to say goodbye to my team soon, and it breaks my heart just thinking about that. But they have made me so confident that I know I can embark on this journey with all the knowledge and wisdom they have shared with me.I don't think I could have done what I did to give birth to my baby boy without my Orange Team! I love them so much and I will ever be so grateful. I never thought I will say this - but I do want more children now that I have one and my experience has been so positive with Access Midwives that I can't imagine being on the 2nd pregnancy journey without them. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!!"

"I am incredibly grateful to Team Blue for their exceptional help and support during my pregnancy and labor. Connie and Lisa were especially outstanding, providing invaluable assistance after my delivery. Their home visits made me feel truly supported and cared for. I also want to extend a big thanks to Alex for her unwavering support. I can't thank them enough for their dedication and kindness."

- Mina Ali
"A wonderful group of women! Genevieve, Connie and Lynlee were professional, informative and supportive every step of the way. I had an unplanned c section with my first and a homebirth with my second. They supported my choices and empowered my decision making. Their post partem care is top notch, and you simply can't beat the convience and comfort of in home visits after birth. Although my c section was not ideal, I still felt my midwives cared deeply about me and my baby during the whole experience and hospital stay. My homebirth was redemptive, and empowering thanks to the unwavering support from my midwives. My babies are healthy and happy thanks to this team. I am truly so grateful to have had this level of care during my pregnancies and births. Special shout out to Hope & Lisa who also attended my homebirth, and thank you to Jamie & Barbara at reception."

"I loved my experience with Access Midwives. My midwifery team was competent, kind and empowering from pregnancy to birth to postpartum. I loved having unrushed check-ups, a fantastic unmedicated birth in the Midwifery Care Unit at Mac, and at-home postpartum visits. Their care of me and baby was comprehensive, wholistic, supportive and skillful. I would highly recommend!"
- Nina SD
"Today was my final day with Access Midwives. 2nd child. First one was with an OB at St. Joe's and Holy heck was it a different experience! I loved my midwives so much. They're so caring and comforting, they give you time to chat and they answer all questions and concerns thoroughly. I was with the yellow team and they were wonderful. Unfortunately, I accidentally gave birth at home so I didn't get to experience that with them but from pregnancy to postpartum care, I couldn't be happier. I would like to give a special shout out to my girl Jamie at the front desk, her and Barbara were amazing. The student on my team, Rebekah. She was so sweet and she did such an amazing job doing her first placement!!! Never in my life has someone taken my blood as gently as she has. I didn't even feel the pinch, how is that even possible?! Olivia, Sequoya, and Nicole were so amazing and sweet and gentle and caring. My final shout out is to Tamara... I'm so thankful for you. This is going to sound weird but you're actually one of my favourite humans I've ever met in my life. Thank you for being such a wonderful support person to me. I'll never forget you. ❤️ Rylee and I thank you all from the bottom of our hearts! 😍10/10 would recommend 👌"

"I reached out to Access Midwives after waiting almost 20 weeks to hear from an OB, and trust me, it was the best decision I made. I cannot express enough gratitude for the care I received from the midwives. I initially met Suzannah, she is amazing, and then transferred to the Orange Team. A big shoutout to Beth, Jess, and Kristen, I felt supported, and truly listened to. As a first-time mom, the information I received from all my midwives was so helpful. They provided thorough and personalized care, addressing any concerns with patience and expertise. I had a Christmas baby, and Jess was on call and was there for me throughout! She was a calming presence, guiding me through each stage. The expertise and confidence instilled a sense of trust and reassurance, making the experience as smooth as possible. Their support continued seamlessly during postpartum. I want to extend special thanks to Beth, Elise, and Jess, who visited me and checked in on me and baby A. Thankyou to the entire team and the front office for providing such a positive experience!"

"I loved the attention and care I received before, during and after my daughters birth! Wonderful professionals!"
- Kateryna Naboka
"I had a wonderful experience from start to finish with Access Midwives. Olivia and Eliza made my entire birth experience perfect and I wouldn’t have changed a thing. I felt completely safe and secure with them looking out for me and my baby and helping me bring my little sweetheart into the world. My baby will be turning one this month, and I don’t know where the time has gone! Feels like just yesterday we were going to the clinic. I’m very grateful for Access midwives, Olivia and Eliza, and the girls at the front. We miss everyone!"
- Heather Williamson
"switched from the OB care to midwifes in the third trimester and I am so happy that I did. In just a few visits I felt like I had all my questions answered and was ready for birth. I was with the orange team and all ladies were exceptional, knowledgeable and really passionate about their work. Definetely recommend this clinic!"
- Laurita Poskute
"Been using the same midwife since i was 19 . Best group of ladies so happy i never went with an ob. If you want a more personal experience i suggest you choose a midwife!!!"
- Ulandaaxo
"I cannot recommend Access Midwives enough! I am a FTM and I was with team pink and they were all incredible. Had I not been with midwives my pregnancy would have likely ended in a c section because of some last minute complications but my midwives took precautions and used techniques to make it possible to deliver naturally. I never felt rushed in any of my visits and the home visits after baby were so nice, not just because I didn’t have to leave my house but it was also nice to talk to them and ask questions. Having Katie do most of my home visits was so helpful as she is also a mom, she shared a lot of lived experiences with me and always gave me a lot of her time and guidance. Delivering at McMaster was great, the midwife unit is clean and pretty spacious. I was put into a shared room after delivering (hospital was full) which was quite noisy but the midwives worked together to sort out that my tests be done at home so that I could leave early and get some much needed rest. I cried after saying goodbye to my team because they had such a big impact on mine and my daughters life!"
- Monique Plourde
"My experience with Access Midwives’s Team Blue was amazing. I had never thought of giving birth without epidural. It was long labor and if not for my midwives I surely would have went for epidural. But somehow Connie’s support made me pass half of the day and then Genevieve encouraged and supported me during the delivery. Though labor was most painful experience, now I remember that day as my most beautiful memory. Even postpartum my baby had difficulty latching but midwives support you like a lactation consultant. You can page 24x7 and get response within 15 minutes. Most importantly that your midwife can come visit you at your home if needed. Do want to mention wonderful receptionists too!"
- Jasdeep Kaur
"My experience with Access Midwives was exceptional. As a first time mom, I was pretty lost in many ways. My midwives guided me throughout my pregnancy and I felt so relaxed throughout it all. My birth experience was positive thanks to Simone and Cait. The support I received postpartum was beyond anything I expected or knew I needed. My baby wouldn't have done so well if it wasn't for my midwives. They helped me identify feeding issues and recommended me to other experts which I don't think I would've been able to do on my own. My own postpartum journey was rocky and they were so compassionate and once again offered resources that helped me out immensely. I can't thank them enough and recommend them enough to anyone that's considering midwives. Thank you Cait, Simone, Erin and Hope 💗 Baby Z is doing so well thanks to the foundational support we had from you."
- Anela A
"I had 2 amazing prenatal, labour, and postpartum experiences with Access midwives. A big thank you to Beth, Cait, Erin, and Simone. I love the philosophy of access midwives and that the teams all come together to support each other. I was really blessed when I went into labour the 2nd time, to have some of the midwives who assisted with my first pregnancy and labour present (Amanda and Savannah). It really made both labour experiences feel connected. The front office staff are also absolutely incredible and make you feel like family from the first phone call to chatting you up when you arrive for your appointments. They are incredible at working with your schedule, booking last minute appointments and various scans needed in a hurry. I highly recommend midwifery to anyone who is pregnant, and especially Access Midwives on Parkdale in Hamilton!!!"
- Caroline Corkum
"I had the most amazing experience with Access Midwives. I had the pleasure of being with Olivia and Eliza throughout and after my second pregnancy. The support, care and encouragement I received from them was like no other. They were more like family at the end and I was sad to say goodbye. I highly recommend everyone at Access. Thank you all for being so amazing!"
- Nicole Henzie
"I cannot thank the purple team at access midwives enough for the incredible care that has been provided to myself as well as my son and family. Cait, Erin, Simone and student Hope have provided the best level of care, showed compassion and a true patient centric approach every step of the way. We have felt very fortunate to have had their support throughout our pregnancy, delivery and postpartum journey And cannot thank the team enough. I would recommend midwife care."
- Stephanie Welton
"I used Access Midwives for my second baby. My team was the most supportive, provided resources and always found a way to answer any concerns or questions. I wish I had used them for my first child."
- Laura Gordon
"I had the pleasure of having the pink team (Amanda, Elise, Emma and student Jess). They were beyond accommodating and caring. I had a lot of trauma with my first pregnancy and I was under the care of an OB. The second time around I knew midwives were the right choice. Not only did I feel cared for, but my anxieties and concerns I had because of my first pregnancy were always taken into account. I appreciated the informed consent they gave. Though, I didn’t actually have a midwife with me when my baby decided to make their appearance, Elise was on the phone with us every step of the way and then literally held my hand as soon as we made it to the hospital. These ladies are angels, and I cannot thank them enough for making me feel safe and secure throughout my pregnancy and labour. 5 stars isn’t enough for my experience with them."
- Montana Robertson
"Had our first baby with Access with the Green team and would recommend! Always took the time to answer all of our questions and didn’t whisk us out the door. Post care and home check ins were wonderful. Only downfall is sometimes a call back for questions would take a long time"
- Nada B
"Hi Amandeep, thanks for taking the time to leave your feedback. We really appreciate it. Also thanks for choosing Access Midwives."
- Amandeep Kaur Saini
"I loved the prenatal, labour and birth, and postnatal care provided by the amazing team Pink. Amanda, Jess, Emma, and Elise are all incredibly compassionate and supportive in their roles. My husband and I felt at ease as they guided us through our first pregnancy. We're so thankful to have had this team bring positive energy, answer all of our questions, and support us throughout our journey to meeting our baby boy! "
- Melanie Kremnev
"I decided to go the Midwife route for my pregnancy due to the fact that it is much more personal. I cannot say enough positive things about my experience with Olivia & Eliza. They are both personable, trustworthy, funny & well-informed. As a first time Mom I had so many questions and was given an answer to every single one. I never once felt rushed. Empowered, supported, heard, motivational. Thank you for pushing me when I thought I couldn’t do it & making me feel so comfortable. I will never forget the impact you both have made on our lives. Niko was very lucky to be delivered by you guys! "
- Ashley Raposo
"Amazing midwives at Access Midwives that helped us each step of the way for all 3 of our children! I couldn’t be more satisfied with the amazing experience we had with the team during pregnancy, delivery & postpartum. They truly care about you. Thank you Tamara!"
- M&J Cleaning Services
"As a first time mom, I enjoyed my experience here at access midwives. I was recommended from a friend and was told you can request a midwife. They come in teams of 3 now so it depends on your appt times because they have rotation schedules. The receptionists are always friendly and kind. They always remind you a couple days before your appt so you don’t forget 😂 a big shout out to Lisa, Genevieve, Connie and Lynlee. Any time I had a question, they were knowledgeable and supportive. Thank you for my positive experience in helping me deliver my baby safely. Will consider coming back in the future."
