Happy Pride Month! 🏳️‍🌈🎉🏳️‍🌈

As a midwifery-led centre, we are uniquely placed to provide affirmative care to 2SLGBTQIA+ clients and families and ensure they feel respected, seen, and safe during their reproductive journeys. We also recognize that we have a responsibility to continue to advocate for choice, comprehensive care, and access within the larger healthcare system. Let us continue to actively challenge discrimination and foster affirming spaces in all aspects of our work.

In community and care,

Today, on Red Dress Day, we honour the lives of Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women, Girls, and Two-Spirit People (MMIWG2S).

At the Ottawa Birth and Wellness Centre, we recognize the deep impacts of colonial violence on Indigenous communities and the urgent need for justice, safety, and systemic change. The red dress is a powerful symbol—calling attention to the lives stolen, the families grieving, and the strength of those demanding accountability.

We hold space today for all who mourn.
We commit to being part of the change.

As a birth centre rooted in midwifery and reproductive justice, we stand in solidarity with Indigenous families and midwives. We are committed to culturally safe, trauma-informed care that honours Indigenous sovereignty and traditions.

🔴 We invite you to learn more, wear red, and take action.
——————-
Aujourd’hui, à l’occasion de la Journée de la robe rouge, nous honorons la mémoire des femmes, des filles et des personnes bispirituelles autochtones disparues et assassinées (FFADA2S).

Au Centre de naissance et de bien-être d’Ottawa, nous reconnaissons les profondes répercussions de la violence coloniale sur les communautés autochtones et l’urgence de promouvoir la justice, la sécurité et des changements systémiques. La robe rouge est un symbole puissant – elle rappelle les vies volées, les familles en deuil et la force de celles et ceux qui réclament des comptes.

Nous offrons aujourd’hui un espace de recueillement pour tous ceux et celles qui pleurent.
Nous nous engageons à faire partie du changement.

En tant que centre de naissance ancré dans la pratique sage-femme et la justice reproductive, nous sommes solidaires des familles et des sages-femmes autochtones. Nous nous engageons à offrir des soins culturellement sécuritaires, informés par les traumatismes, qui respectent la souveraineté et les traditions autochtones.

🔴 Nous vous invitons à porter du rouge, à en apprendre davantage et à agir.

May 5th International day of the midwife:

Midwifery is rooted in trust, respect, informed choice, and continuity of care. On this International Day of the Midwife, we celebrate not just the clinical expertise of midwives—but their advocacy, presence, and power in every setting, including here in Ottawa.

This year’s theme, “Midwives: Critical in Every Crisis,” reminds us that midwives are essential in emergencies and everyday life. From supporting home births to responding with calm and care during global pandemics, midwives are frontline responders, protectors of reproductive rights, and champions of community wellness.

Midwifery care is a model that uplifts families, cultures, and health systems. Whether it’s in a birthing centre, home, or a hospital, midwives ensure that every birth story is centered in dignity and choice.

We honour all midwives—past, present, and future—for walking beside families, no matter what.
