Selina Boily
Registered Midwife

My passion to become a midwife was inspired by my sons' births, one born in hospital and one born at home, both attended by midwives.

I was a founding member of Aspiring Island Midwives (AIM) which seeked out and promoted avenues for women to enter midwifery training programs. I have worked with several organizations that promoted women's health, from the Victoria Birth Control Clinic to prenatal classes for both Midwives and General Practioner's clients.

I went on to complete a three-year direct-entry midwifery program at the Seattle Midwifery School, which took me to training sites from the Oregon Coast to the South Pacific. I am an executive Board member of the Midwives Association of BC and the acting chair of the Risk Management Committee.

As Vancouver Island had been my home for several years prior to pursuing midwifery, I am happy to return with my family once again. I am looking forward to providing midwifery care to families of the Cowichan area.

I first became interested in midwifery in 1991 after spending a year in Ghana, West Africa. On my return to Canada I became involved in the midwifery community in BC, and what soon became a passion eventually led me to England where I completed a 3-year midwifery education program. After earning registration status in the UK, I moved back to Vancouver, went through the registration process in BC and began working. I practiced for three years with The Midwifery Group in Vancouver before moving to the Cowichan Valley. My husband and I and our four children love living on the Island, and it has given me immense pleasure to be a part of CMG, providing care to families in the valley
