My name is Noelia Greizerstein, and I am very grateful and honoured to be part of the team at West End Midwives. I was born and raised in Buenos Aires, Argentina, and immigrated here in 2000.  I have been practicing midwifery since graduating with Honours from the Ryerson Midwifery Education Program in 2014. During my time at Toronto Metropolitan University, I was the recipient of the Murray and Eleanor Enkin Clinical Excellence Award. Since graduation, I have worked in the GTA providing midwifery care in hospital, home and the Toronto Birth Centre, where I was also part of the Midwives Council. I speak Spanish as my first language, and have learned Portuguese informally by working with the Brazilian and Portuguese communities here in Toronto. Prior to practicing as a midwife, I was a flamenco dancer and spent over a decade dedicating myself to this art form.
