Here at SGMT, our Midwives can help you organize a home birth. Studies have shown that a home birth with a Midwife is a safe option for most pregnant people, provided they have no health issues or pregnancy related concerns. Most homes in Toronto are suitable for home births, including condos and apartments.

You can get more information from your Midwife to decide if a home birth is a good choice for you!

We are very fortunate that our clinic is located inside the TBC. A birthing centre is a regulated, community-based health care facility that offers pregnant people a safe, comfortable, family-centred place to give birth. Families using the TBC are encouraged to incorporate their own culture, background, traditions and preferences in their experience. Supporting Indigenous families through pregnancy and birth is a particular focus of the TBC.

Please speak to your Midwife about the option of giving birth at the TBC and to register.

Our Midwives have privileges at Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre, we are the only midwifery clinic with privileges at Sunnybrook. If you are interested in birthing at a different hospital, please consider a midwifery clinic with privileges there as we cannot attend a birth at any other hospital.

If you chose to have your baby at Sunnybrook you will be admitted to our labour and delivery unit by your Midwife, they will catch your baby and stay with you through the immediate postpartum period. 

Should you need to attend any ultrasounds, consults or pregnancy appointments at Sunnybrook, we have two hospitalist Midwives who can attend and support you.
