Nargess Sharghi-Somea

I’m Nargess, and I’m one of the co-founders of Luna Midwifery Care. I earned my bachelor’s and master’s degrees in Midwifery from The University of Tehran School of Medical Sciences and had worked as a registered midwife in Iran from 1996 to 2009 and conducted more than 1000 deliveries. My last position before moving to Canada was instructor and faculty member at Azad University’s Department of Midwifery.

After moving to Canada, I received my Canadian accreditation through the University of British Columbia MMBP program. I have been working as a registered midwife in BC since 2012 and was honoured to welcome about 600 babies at surrey memorial hospital. I am committed to providing holistic care to families, emphasizing woman-centred care by supporting mothers’ informed decisions.

I have been able to connect, with women and their families, at some of the most significant moments of their lives. Supporting them through their journey to motherhood, acting as their advocate and have been privileged to share in their joy of becoming parents.
