Britney Olivares (she/her)
Hello! My name is Britney, or Brit, and I’m thrilled to be joining Pacific Midwifery Practice alongside Terry Lyn in August 2025. I’m grateful to live and work on the unceded territories of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), Skwxwú7mesh (Squamish), and səlilwətaɬ (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations.
I am a second-generation immigrant of Mexican/European descent, born and raised in North Vancouver. My path to midwifery was shaped by a deep-rooted interest in reproductive health and a commitment to supporting individuals and families through one of life’s most transformative experiences. I’m especially passionate about upholding choice, autonomy, and emotional well-being throughout the childbearing journey. My practice is grounded in the values of equity, inclusivity, and accessibility—particularly for those who have been marginalized within our healthcare system.
Before studying midwifery, I completed a Bachelor’s Degree in Health Sciences with a Minor in Kinesiology at Simon Fraser University. My background in anatomy, physiology, epidemiology, and the social sciences continues to shape how I understand and support health across the perinatal period.
Outside of midwifery, I recharge through creative expression and time in nature. I love skiing, surfing, camping, and hiking with my spirited border collie, Max. I’m an artist who enjoys working across many mediums, a passionate world traveler, and I speak conversational Spanish.
I’m truly honoured to begin this new chapter and look forward to meeting all the growing families in our care!
