Andreia Situm
Registered Midwife

I am proud to say I grew up in a European country where births attended by midwives was, and still is, a normal and natural practice in helping women through the child birth experience.

Here in my new home of Canada I am both proud and privileged to support and help women experience the most loving, intimate, and rewarding acts of love, solely "childbirth".

I was born in Croatia in 1961 in a family of five children. My parents instilled in us the love of learning and culture. After graduating from the four year nurse-midwifery training program at Katherine Salopek College in Croatia in 1980, I served as a Registered midwife in Petrova Hospital, a busy urban maternity clinic in Zagreb. I worked part-time during academic terms, and full-time during summers for several community clinics. Upon completion of a Bachelor of Science degree and one year of biomedicine, I immigrated to Ontario, Canada in 1987.

In 2000, I became a Registered Midwife with the College of Midwives of Ontario and practiced in the Hamilton and Oakville areas.

I have now relocated to British Columbia where I will continue my intense support for women seeking a more personal, intimate, and positive birth experience.
