  • “The quality of care providers at Rebirth has absolutely exceeded my expectations. My partner and I attended all the classes there before our son was born (push prep, breastfeeding, newborn care, childbirth education and massage therapy) and all of the instructors were extremely kind and knowledgeable. Postpartum I have made use of counselling, chiropractor and Ease Mama retreats and again, all the staff were knowledgeable and kind. I absolutely feel a sense of community being able to access all of these services and more in one place and it's my first stop when I am looking for a service within the parenthood community. I feel extremely fortunate to have found this amazing resource in our community."
