I called Edmonton home for many years, and I still have a lot of love for Edmonton and the people there! So, I get asked quite frequently for Edmonton recommendations, and although I have a travel guide for you here, and I try and ask the community for specific Edmonton recommendations as frequently as possible, I thought I should ask an incredible Edmontonian who is in the birthing and postpartum community to set mamas up with the best possible resources to serve you during pregnancy and postpartum. Check out Grace Pastuck for all her doula services and phenomenal advice. I can’t thank her enough for her work putting this together to serve you!

Grace’s Favourites:
- Edmonton Midwifery Cooperative
