JENNY LIMOGES is leading change in midwifery.
As a registered midwife, clinic director and practice-owner, she has dedicated her career to improving access to midwifery care, especially for rural families.
“I was raised to believe serving others can lift spirits and inspire others,” Limoges says.
“Just like a rising tide lifts many boats, serving and supporting others helps us all to move closer to our goals.”
In 2024, Limoges opened Bump, Birth & Beyond, an integrative family clinic that fulfils her childhood dream of creating a supportive space for families. She also leads Abeille Airdrie Midwives, advocating for midwifery access at local hospitals, including a letter-writing campaign where midwifery clients requested fair and equal access at Olds Hospital.
Her advocacy extends to mentoring midwifery students and new registrants, volunteering time to help them fill gaps in their skills. Limoges also co-facilitates a monthly meetup for parents in Airdrie to combat isolation, especially after the COVID-19 pandemic.
Through her clinic, she has organized several events to support families, including Free Market & Mix and Mingle events, providing free clothing and baby items while offering a chance for families to connect.
“Jenny is the most selfless person I know,” says nominator Amanda Strom.
“She goes above and beyond for everyone, especially her midwifery clients, ensuring they get the care they need. Her passion to help others shows in her huge heart.”
