To be registered and licensed in Nova Scotia, midwives must successfully meet various requirements:
- Pathways to Midwifery Registration
- Canadian Midwifery Registration Exam
Notice: The NSNMR office will be closed July 1-3, 2026. Staff will be available virtually for urgent matters July 2-3.
Effective June 30th, the Nova Scotia Nursing and Midwifery Regulator (NSNMR) was formed as a multi-profession regulator, replacing the former Nova Scotia College of Nursing and the Midwifery Regulatory Council of Nova Scotia. We appreciate your patience as we update our systems, processes, documents, and website to align with our new name and legislation.
