Young Women’s Health Program

The Young Women's Health Program provides support , pregnancy care and education for young pregnant and parenting women 19 years old and under.

The program offers a friendly, flexible and confidential environment where you can ask questions about your pregnancy, baby and general wellbeing, participate in free workshops and attend one to one sessions to discuss birth options and your birth plan.  

The Women’s pregnancy and parenting care follows a team care approach. That means in addition to doctors and midwives you can access other professionals such as social workers, dietitians, physiotherapists and psychologists to ensure you get enough support during pregnancy and after the birth of your baby.

We also offer caseload midwifery care ( COSMOS ) for women with a low risk pregnancy.

Health issues treated

Pregnancy and parenting with an individual approach. We will encourage you to participate in the decision making process, as you are the most important part of our care.
