Our practice is dedicated to training new midwives, so that more parents in Ontario can have access to midwifery care.
There are almost always students being mentored in our practice. Your midwifery team may involve a student, with your consent. There are many advantages to having a student midwife as part of your team. Our students are enthusiastic and eager to learn. They are dedicated to learning the midwifery profession and enhancing their clients' birthing experiences. They also provide an extra set of hands in labour to give labour support!
Students always work closely with midwives, and have a vast range of clinical skills, depending on their stage in training. Our practice supervises students at all stages of the midwifery education program, from introductory level (first clinical placement) to clerkship (end of training, similar to residency).

Hello,
I am Mariam, a senior year midwifery student at Toronto Metropolitan University (TMU). I am excited and looking forward to completing my senior placement at East Mississauga Midwives!
I’ve lived in various countries around the world which helped me become fluent in both English and Arabic. My past experiences and upbringing fuel my dedication to providing equitable reproductive healthcare with an anti-oppressive, anti-racist, and trauma-informed care framework.
My fascination with pregnancy and birth, combined with my passion for anti-oppression and justice, motivate me every day to keep going in this field. I have dreams of becoming a skilled midwife and providing my services to those who do not have access to safe and trauma-informed care.
In my free time, I love spending time with my family, being in nature, and volunteering in the community.
Hello and Salaam!
My name is Marium. I am a fourth-year student at Toronto Metropolitan University in the Midwifery Program. I am excited to be at East Mississauga Midwives for my final year of the program. I am living my dream right now as I have always been passionate about midwifery and the tenets of midwifery in Ontario.
Each time I was under the care of a midwife, I fell in love with midwifery all over again. I have four kids between the ages of 7 and 12 and now it is time to be on the other side of midwifery!
I am passionate about homebirth, and although evidence shows that a planned homebirth with a midwife is as safe as a hospital birth in Ontario, I firmly believe that the best place to have a baby is where you feel the most comfortable and safe. I am committed to working with clients within a framework that promotes equity and inclusivity and acknowledges the importance of trauma-informed care. I am looking forward to supporting clients in making decisions that are best for themselves and their families. I am humbled and honoured to be a part of your care.
In my spare time, I enjoy biking with my children, game nights and quality time with my siblings.
