Our Services
Comprehensive Prenatal Care
____________
From routine antepartum visits to collaborative birth planning, we ensure you receive personalized, relationship-based care throughout your pregnancy. Our Midwifery-led model includes OB consultation as needed to support both low-risk and complex pregnancies.
Hospital Birth and Postpartum Care
____________
We provide hospital-based birth care at Richmond Hospital with an obstetrician, ensuring a safe and supportive environment for you and your family. After birth, our team offers postpartum follow-up and coordinated care transitions to help you recover and adjust confidently.
Community Based Postpartum Care
____________
At Haven, we understand that not everyone has a primary care provider (GP/NP) to follow them and their babies after discharge from the hospital. Haven offers a Community Postpartum Clinic which is open to any family with a new baby, 6 weeks of age and under who
-
cannot access a GP/NP within the first 7 days after hospital discharge
-
wants more support with the physical and emotional changes post birth
-
needs support with newborn care, especially feeding (breast or bottle)
This clinic is self-referral or provider referred.
Our Approach
What to Expect
At Haven, you’ll receive compassionate, team-based care throughout your pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. Our midwife will guide you with regular visits, and obstetricians are available for additional support when needed. From prenatal care to hospital birth and postpartum follow-up, our team works together to keep you and your baby supported, informed, and cared for every step of the way.
Our Care Philosophy
We are committed to providing continuous, relationship-based care before, during, and after birth that prioritizes safety, respect, and inclusivity. Grounded in culturally safe, trauma-informed, and gender-affirming practices, our philosophy centers on shared decision-making and informed choice, ensuring that all 2SLGBTQIA+ individuals and diverse families feel supported, empowered, and cared for throughout their perinatal journey.
