My name is Maryam Sharfaei. I completed a Bachelor of Health Sciences in Midwifery and a Masters in Family Health Education. Over the course of my training, midwifery truly became my passion! I immigrated to Canada with my family in 2006 and enrolled in the International Midwifery Pre- Registration Program (IMPP) at Ryerson University. 

I have  been practicing midwifery for over 20 years and was blessed to work 5 years in rural Manitoba. I have attended more than 1000 births in Iran and Canada however the miracle of pregnancy and childbirth never ceases to amaze me. I am honoured to assist clients and their families in this special time. 

I am a strong believer of informed choice discussion, personal autonomy, and enjoy helping clients to make their own decision. I thoroughly enjoy working with people and always strive to provide the best care possible. I seek to provide care that is not only woman-centered but also sensitive to a woman’s social and cultural context. I feel very privileged to be part of the midwifery profession.
