Carmen De Freitas

Hi, my name is Carmen De Freitas and I am a 4th year senior student coming to Seventh Generation Midwives. I am so excited to meet the midwives, birth workers, clients, and administrative staff at SGMT! I come from Oakville, Ontario but grew up rurally in Manitoba on a farm with chickens and horses. My dreams of becoming a midwife started there after seeing the supportive and knowledgeable community of midwives and birth workers provide excellent care to our rural community. I love art and music, and spend time reading, writing, singing, and painting. The creative arts are an important part of my life and have helped me understand birth and midwifery more deeply. I am grateful for the midwives and clients who invite me into their experiences and look forward to solidifying and expanding upon my knowledge and understanding of midwifery this year.
