Our next session is fast approaching - donβt miss out!
My anxiety around that process and not having had the extra time and attention from my first provider had left me feeling uninformed and scared. But the care I received from my midwives was just invaluable and I'm thankful I switched before giving birth!
What an exciting few weeks this has been!
Not only did we recently hold our official clinic open house, which gave us the chance to share our beautiful new space with many of our beloved families, friends and colleagues, we also performed the traditional Jewish practice of placing mezuzahs in our doorways.
Mezuzahs are comprised of a small piece of parchment placed within a permanent case and affixed to the inside edge of a doorframe. The parchment is inscribed with special spiritual scriptures from the Jewish bible (Torah) and sealed in a weather-proofed housing. It is believed that these holy scrolls provide a good omen for blessings, health and good fortune.
May Uptown Midwives & Family Wellness, and all those who pass through our doors grow to see an abundance of these blessings!
