A fresh take on postpartum care

To meet the growing needs of new families across Kelowna and Central Okanagan, Sprout Midwifery exclusively provides care for parents and newborns from birth up to 6 to 8 weeks postpartum. We work as collaborative members of the health care team, accepting referrals from health care professionals, and from families directly. Services are covered by BC MSP.

Our visits take place in client homes, virtually or, at the hospital. We typically offer an initial prenatal consult, 2 to 3 visits in the first week postpartum, and then weekly or biweekly visits up to 6 to 8 weeks after baby is born. We provide complete postpartum and newborn care, including routine screening tests, weight and growth assessments, newborn feeding support and postpartum physical assessments for the birthing parent. We remain on call 24/7 for any emergencies that come up during that time.

We also accept health professional referrals for prenatal and/or postpartum consults.

We transfer care back to the client’s primary care provider, or help connect clients with a healthcare team when our care is complete.

As spaces are limited, we encourage clients to register for care before baby is born for complete postpartum care from birth.
