Sherri
Hi, I am Sherri.
I am new to the London area and I am excited to join the Wind Rose Midwifery team. I graduated from Laurentian University in June 2018 and started my
midwifery career in Windsor, Ontario.
Prior to midwifery I trained to be a Registered Practical Nurse. I have had the opportunity to practice as a nurse in a variety of settings, including the hospital, homecare, hospice care and worked alongside an obstetrician in her office.
Being a midwife allows me to provide quality care while building a working relationship. It is a privilege working alongside pregnant persons and their families as they transition into parenthood.
When I am not busy supporting clients I am actively involved with my family. I have two son's who are busy playing sports and participating in activities. I enjoy hanging out with my husband exploring walking trails and chilling with our dogs.
I love being a Midwife and I look forward to supporting you on this journey

As a former client, I know just how wonderful the care of midwives is and the impact their care can have on the journey through pregnancy, birth, and the postpartum stages. I am so thrilled to be a part of the Wind Rose Team as the Assistant Administrator, supporting the midwives and helping to make the clinic a welcoming and enjoyable space.
When I’m not in the office, I am busy with my partner, our 3 kids, 2 cats, and a dog. We enjoy being outside exploring forests or trails, building Legos, and having movie nights.

I completed my final clinical placement at Wind Rose Midwifery. Prior to my midwifery training, I earned a Bachelor of Science in Psychology with a minor in Biology from Carleton University in Ottawa, my hometown.
My passion for midwifery continues to grow each day, and I am constantly motivated by the privilege I have of assisting individuals throughout their journey of pregnancy and childbirth. I believe that midwives have a unique role to play in advocating for and supporting clients beyond these life-changing events. I'm excited about midwives being able to provide even more services to our clients in the future as the needs of families evolve.
When I'm not attending births, I enjoy exploring London, especially indulging in the food scene. When I am not assisting you with births or pregnancy care, you will find me cooking, movie-watching, and crocheting. I'm thrilled to be at Wind Rose Midwifery. It is a privilege to be a part of your care.

I'm Michelle and I'm thrilled to have found my home with Talbot Creek Midwives.
Midwifery is a profession that lets me work with my heart and my hands. I am continuously in awe of the wonder of pregnancy and birth and appreciate the individuality and uniqueness of each woman, family and pregnancy. I value the opportunity to establish relationships with clients based on trust, and provide the framework for women to become primary decision makers in their health care.
I'm grateful for the unpredictable nature of our work and the potential for learning something new at each and every birth. Midwifery keeps me on my toes!
I love London and am so happy to be living and working here. Outside of midwifery my time is spent loving my partner, two sons and dog. I'm also known to get pretty excited about board games and anything involving cooking or eating!

Nikki Mills
As a co founder of Talbot Creek Midwives since 2006, I became a Registered midwife in 1993, educated at the University level in the UK and Canada. In 2014 I obtained my Masters degree, along with a dual "hat" and an ability to work as a Nurse Practitioner. On a professional level I love anything to do with health and teach as an instructor of obstetrical Emergency skills and cardiopulmonary resuscitation along with helping others towards their own academic achievements. On a personal level, I am the proud mother of two adult children who have supported my lifelong chosen career throughout their entire lives. I enjoy spending time with those I love most, or simply hanging out at home, or involved in activities that share time between friends, church, painting, gardening, travel, reading and cooking.
Like so many midwives, my daily work is so much more than a job. It is passion and a calling and my most fervent prayer is that you have faith and courage to listen to your body, share the knowledge of you, and strive to diminish any fears you may have.
Enjoy being encouraged to birth and transition the way you must and to know we are by your side every step of the way. This while being cherished by those around you who are supporting, loving and guiding you in this life changing event to parenthood, knowing those around you whether midwives, mothers, sisters or friends have done it before you, so you can too!
I feel blessed by faith and intuition, having worked with so many wonderful families and a midwifery team today that is all I could ask and more. To be welcomed into peoples homes, journeying with them in one of the most powerful experiences to be had in life - I am honored and blessed to be part of your care. I will be forever in awe of the courage and strength that birthing women possess and the way in which baby's come into the world in the simple presence of loving support and gentle encouragement.

I am very excited to be returning to Talbot Creek Midwives as I have previously trained with them in my final year of the MEP program. In 2017, I graduated with honors from Laurentian University with a Bachelors of Health Sciences in Midwifery. Since then I have worked with midwife practices in Sarnia and Grand Valley.
Before being accepted into the midwifery education program I worked as a registered practical nurse in several different settings, including a Naturopathic Doctors clinic, long term care and multiple hospital units.
When I am not busy supporting mothers and their families, or catching babies. I can be found playing video games, watching sci-fi movies, reading fantasy novels, or kickboxing. I love the winter and being out in the snow as it reminds me of my year in Finland. In the summer I can be found up north at my family's cottage, either building something with my parents or fishing for bass with my husband.
I am a strong believer in informed choice and supporting clients in their endeavour to make the best choices for their families. I feel very privileged to be part of this profession and I look forward to working with you on this journey into parenthood.

Beth Currie
Hi ! My name is Beth, and I am a graduate of the McMaster Midwifery program. Throughout my midwifery education, I completed placements in Hamilton, London, Cambridge. In addition, I had the opportunity to spend a month at a birth centre in Guatemala working with midwives from a number of different countries. I recently joined Talbot Creek midwives and I'm grateful to be back in London Ontario where I grew up, and my partner & family lives.
I was initially drawn to midwifery due to an interest in reproductive health, social justice & holistic health care. I feel grateful to be in a profession that allows me to share in such meaningful moments in family's lives and I very much value the relationships I form with clients & the privilege of watching families grow.
I'm so grateful to work at such a dynamic & supportive practice. I firmly believe that the collaborative work culture that we have cultivated allows us to provide exceptional client care.
In my spare time I enjoy gardening, DIY projects, running and spending time with my family and friends. I'm very much looking forward to meeting you and being involved in your care!

Talbot Creek has been my home as a midwife since 2011. I have a passion for supporting clients and their families through this amazing time in their lives. I am a life-long learner and I appreciate developing strong, trusting partnerships with our clients. I am invested in providing clients with respect and guiding them to make the best decisions they can for their care and newborn baby. I love conducting research on women's health and midwifery education. I also have a keen interest in midwifery team development. When I am not busy guiding clients through their births, or helping with the transition into parenthood, I am chasing around my own two children alongside my wonderful husband and our german shepherd. Being a midwife is truly the most rewarding job and I look forward to helping you on this journey.

I’m Sarah and I graduated from the Midwifery Education Program at McMaster University. As someone who has spent most of my life growing up and living in Grand Bend, London, and St. Thomas, I am so happy to be able to call myself part of the Talbot Creek Midwifery team.
I previously completed my honours BA in Child Health at Brock University. After graduation I completed the Early Childhood Education program at Fanshawe College and began caring for infants at a local center in London. While I loved caring for infants, I found myself longing to work with parents, supporting and empowering them throughout pregnancy, birth, and postpartum which lead me to the midwifery program at McMaster. I finished up my senior year here at Talbot Creek Midwives. I completed all my schooling while juggling the triumphs and challenges of being a young mother. I longed for more supportive care and so I find myself drawn to providing this informed and inclusive care to others.
Outside of midwifery I enjoy spending time with my husband and three kids. We love being outdoors, exploring parks and beaches, hiking, biking, swimming, and exploring with our Australian Shepherd by our side. When I have a spare moment, I enjoy curling up with a good book and a cup of tea. You won’t often find me without a cup of tea in hand!
