Meagan Scott, RN
Hello! I worked for many years as a labour and delivery nurse in Victoria and now support postpartum families as a public health nurse and lactation consultant here in Penticton. I am passionate about birth and supporting families on their journey into parenthood. No matter how many babies I help welcome, that moment never gets old!
I am a mama of two littles, and my recent (and wonderful!) personal experience with home birth inspired me to join this exceptional team as a second attendant.
Amongst the busyness of motherhood, I enjoy fresh air, making bread, and a hot cup of tea!
Ella MacDonald, RN
I was first introduced to postpartum care at BC Women’s Hospital as an Employed Student Nurse during the summer of 2017, which lit a spark. I finally completed my labour and delivery training in Kamloops in the spring of 2020 and I have been working on the Women and Children’s unit in Penticton ever since. My amazing colleagues introduced the idea of being second attendee to home births, so here I am! What a privilege to be a part of someone’s birth story, whether in the hospital or at home. Thank you Willow Midwives for inviting me to this community! When I’m not at work, you can find me with my dog whether walking or hiking, spending time with family and trying new things to cook.

I am a Registered Nurse that has been working with families through their birthing experience for many years both in hospital and at home. I strive to help people achieve the birth they desire in the safest way possible.
When I am not working I can be found out hiking or geocaching with my family, gardening or reading a good book.
