MAWS has a new online continuing education platform on Thinkific!

We are thrilled to announce that our new online continuing education courses are now available on Thinkific!

Thinkific is a user-friendly platform that allows us to share our courses to a wider audience and provide members who missed our previous webinars, an opportunity to learn from our amazing speakers.

Our online continuing education courses cover a range of topics and are designed to help midwives advance their skills and knowledge. Our courses are self-paced, allowing learners to complete them on their own schedule and from the comfort of their own home or office.

We are excited to bring the expertise of our speakers to the Thinkific platform and provide learners with the tools and resources they need to succeed in their careers. Enroll now and take your professional development to the next level!

The 2022 Annual Conference is titled "MAWS and EMS in Collaboration: Low Frequency, High Risk" and was held in Buckle
y, WA in the Spring of 2022.


MAWS hosts an annual conference for midwives, doulas, nurses, doctors and other birth professionals. The topics and themes of these conferences are based on current developments in the field of midwifery and the feedback of our members’ yearly survey. Our diverse speakers are professionals in their fields, bringing you the latest research and relevant information.

Land Acknowledgement 
MAWS acknowledges that we live and work on the unceded ancestral lands of the Coast Salish tribes and pay our respects to all of the ancestral homelands and traditional territories of Indigenous peoples who have been here since time immemorial. We recognize that this land touches on the shared waters of tribes and bands within the Duwamish, Puyallup, Suquamish, Tulalip and Muckleshoot nations. We recognize we are grateful to be guests in these lands and commit to show solidarity for the continued fight for Indigenous sovereignty. ​
