The International Day of the Midwife (IDM) 2026 theme, “One Million More Midwives,” highlights a global call to address critical midwifery workforce shortages. Evidence shows that investing in well-educated, regulated, and supported midwives improves outcomes for women, newborns, and newborns while strengthening health systems. For AAM, this reinforces the importance of advocacy for sustainable workforce planning and full scope of practice to ensure better care across Alberta and beyond.

A great opportunity to connect with other moms in your postpartum time!

✨Welcome To The Nurture Circle - You Belong Here!
The early months of motherhood are profound. You and your baby are learning each other, while you’re quietly becoming a new version of yourself.
The Nurture Circle is a 6-week in-person postpartum group for mothers with babies 0–12 months in Edmonton. It is not a program selling you anything. Instead, it is a warm, intimate space to be seen, heard, and genuinely supported — while building the real-life community every mother needs.
Guided by Mandy Rempfer-Kuncio, pelvic physiotherapist and doula with over 17 years of experience, each week blends grounded education with honest conversation, meaningful reflection, and the kind of care that holds you — and your baby.
Over six weeks together, you can expect:
- Honest, grounded education on postpartum and matrescence
- Real conversation with mothers who truly get it
- Space to be seen, heard, and understood — without judgment
- Gentle nourishment for your body and heart
- The beginning of your real-life village
By the end, many mothers leave feeling less alone, steadier in their body and emotions, more confident in their instincts, and connected to a community that continues to show up for them.
A nurtured mother nurtures her baby. Healthy mothers build healthy families — and healthy families build healthier communities. This is where it begins.
 📅Tuesdays, April 7 – May 12
🕗 1:00 – 2:30pm
👶Babies welcome
Space is limited to 10 mothers to keep the circle intimate and relational. You are warmly invited. 💖 Your village can begin here.

Feeling Grateful to have received this review today....

"From my wife & I: The incredible Heather is absolutely unmatched, and frankly should be charging much more for her doula-ing and other services which is based on the most intuitive wisdom, compassion, and a bazillion other things. I’ve had FOUR births with Heather, all presenting a different unexpected turn, and all going extremely well because of this amazing balanced birth super human. She reminded me of things I need to hear in difficult moments, she is extremely in tune, often noticing things I say or do no one else in the room does. I have felt so empowered after each birth, and just want to be more like this calm and considerate gem of a human being. If you’re lucky enough to get her in her schedule for doula care, photography, any thing else she offers, you are beyond BLESSED!!"
