ECONOMICAL

At just $99, our pools are a fraction of the cost of renting a pool plus a liner. We are committed to keeping our prices accessible- despite the economic downturn and inflation, we haven’t raised our prices since 2016!

PERFECTLY SIZED

Deep enough to submerge, while still easy for your caregiver to check heart tones and progression without needing you to move (or taking a swim with you!)

COMFORTABLE

With wide edges and an inflated bottom, Passages Pools are far more comfortable than porcelain or hard tubs.

DURABLE

Passages Pools are made from a durable eco-vinyl and can stand up to the intensity of birth. Eco-vinyl is made without phthalates, lead or cadmium. 

BEAUTIFUL

Clear bottom rings allow the water to be illuminated from the outside, for better visibility for your attendants, and for incredible photos!

PERFECTLY SIZED

Perfectly sized for use in any space, without being too heavy for your floors or putting too much strain on your hot water tank.

When filled with water, Passages Pools weigh roughly 230kg or about 500 lbs; about the equivalent of a few extra people in the room. 

IMPROVED DESIGN

New valves make for quick inflating and even easier deflating after the birth!

PASSAGES POOLS

Passages Pools

$99.00

Passages Pools were designed by Noreen Walker, a legendary midwife in Alberta who attended water births starting in the 1980s, attending thousands in her 40-year career. We have witnessed the benefits of birthing in water: increased comfort, efficient labours, and the gentle entrance of the newborn into their new world. No family should be excluded from this experience due to cost. That’s why we make Passages Pools.

Passages Pools are:

    • Affordable: At just $99 each, each pool is just a fraction of the cost you would pay for a rental plus a liner!
    • Durable: each pool is made with ultra-durable eco-vinyl.
    • Comfortable: wide, inflated sides can support the weight of an adult, and the inflated floor is soft to kneel on. Far more comfortable and deep than a porcelain tub.
    • Single-use: there is no need to worry about purchasing a separate liner for protection against bacteria, as these pools are used by a single family, and not intended to be used again by anyone else.
    • Clear bottom rings allow for midwives and caregivers to illuminate the water unobtrusively, for easier viewing. (and AMAZING photos!)
    • Each of the 3 rings and the bottom inflate separately, making it easier to repair a single puncture without leaking
    • Perfectly sized for use in small spaces: approx. 60 inches x 24 inches
    • Manufacturer’s Warranty with purchase (details found below)
    • IMPROVED DESIGN: we have upgraded our pools to a thicker material, and replaced the valves for easy inflating, and super quick deflating, all while sticking to our LOW price that has not changed since 2016.
