JEM DEGUIRE BHSc
I graduated from McMaster University in 2011 with a Bachelor of Health Sciences degree in Midwifery and since then have been gaining wisdom through experiences learning from babies, birthing people, their supports and my fellow colleagues. I have worked in Southern Ontario, Nunavik, and New Brunswick.
In 2017 I moved onto Wolastoq land in New Brunswick to pivot my lifestyle toward off grid homesteading, self sufficiency in a small community and birth work. Since then I have had 2 little girls and.
I have a strong commitment to holding space for folx to navigate and experience their unique journey into parenthood. I equally value supporting my colleagues in their irreplaceable and important work as midwives.
I am working toward trauma informed, anti-racist and safer care.
I recently completed a contract in Ontario and am happy to be back in NB spending time with my family.
I am also pursuing a Masters Degree in Counseling.
