Company Description

Generations Midwifery Care provides exceptional, evidence-based, woman-centered midwifery services in the Brockville, Smiths Falls and Kemptville areas.

Generations is a midwifery practice group serving Leeds & Grenville and the Rideau Lakes area (approximately 50 km around Brockville). We have clinics in Brockville, Smiths Falls and Kemptville.

Midwives are integrated into the health care system with hospital admitting privileges at Brockville General Hospital as well as the Ottawa Birth and Wellness Centre. Midwifery clients also have the option of home birth.

Midwives are experts in low risk pregnancy, birth, breastfeeding, postpartum and baby care.

About 80% of pregnant people are considered low risk.

Midwives are funded by the Ministry of Health and Long Term Care. Care with a midwife is similar to care with a doctor or nurse. Midwives provide all the same tests and monitoring throughout the childbearing year.

Midwifery clients have access to comfort measures like epidural and other pain medications or they can choose to avoid them.

Midwifery in Ontario is based on informed choice, continuity of care, and choice of birthplace.

People in midwifery care have higher breastfeeding rates and lower rates of birth interventions (like cesarean sections) than the provincial average.

Midwives accept clients in early pregnancy and follow them and their infant until six weeks postpartum. A referral is not needed to access midwifery care.

At Generations Midwifery Care we believe that:

Pregnancy and childbirth are a profound time in a woman’s life, imbued with a variety of personal and cultural

meanings, and are best approached in a non-authoritarian manner, providing choice of birthplace, continuity of care,

informed choice and recognizing the woman as the primary decision maker.*

Midwives are experts in the provision of primary care for women anticipating normal, low risk pregnancy and birth.*

Valuing and respecting diversity is integral for the provision of midwifery care.*

Effective midwifery care is based on the best available evidence combined with the knowledge of a woman and her

circumstances.*

We must value and embrace the principles of dignity and diversity in every facet of the work we undertake.*

Supporting each other and meeting each other’s needs so that we can each and collectively contribute to midwifery

over the long term requires conscientious focus and commitment.

Empathy, advocacy, benevolence and non-maleficence.

Strong intra- and inter-professional relationships contribute to excellence in client care and work satisfaction.

Our non-midwife Director of Operations, Meghan Jarzyna, is a Senior Practice Partner with a unique role in the

history of Ontario Midwifery. The lack of precedence creates both vulnerabilities that must be safe guarded and

opportunities that benefit our practice.
