The MATCH (Midwifery and Toronto Community Health) Program offers a wide variety of services related to pregnancy, labour, and birth, as well as postpartum care for infants and adults, well-gynecological care and pregnancy options counselling. Our team is made up of four midwives and a social worker. We also work closely with family doctors, nurse practitioners, registered nurses, physiotherapists and harm reduction workers at the CHC. For LGBTQ+ families planning to welcome a baby born via surrogacy in a community outside Toronto, our team can provide infant postpartum care. If you need a primary care provider for non-pregnancy related healthcare after or during your pregnancy, our team can connect you to a family doctor or nurse practitioner.

Our care is free if you live in Ontario even if you don’t have OHIP.

Our social worker can support you (in either English or Spanish) with case management, housing support, crisis intervention, one-on-one counselling, resource navigation and assistance acquiring necessary supplies related to pregnancy and parenting. Our team can also often provide phones and/or sim cards if you don’t have a working phone.

The midwives provide 24-hour on-call services to MATCH clients during pregnancy and for the first 6 weeks postpartum. After your baby is born, we will visit you where you are staying to provide clinical care for you and your baby. Visits after the first week postpartum usually happen in our clinic.

Clients of the MATCH Program can also access a variety of other services and supports available at South Riverdale Community Health Centre.
