Welcome to the Sitka Team
Sitka Midwives offers a unique model of care where most prenatal visits take place as relaxed walking visits in North Vancouver forests or East Vancouver parks. This model is ideal for people who enjoy being outdoors, and are interested in a nature-based approach to prenatal care.
