Witches are not born, they are made through learning magic, or it can be assumed since Regina learned magic, and also became a witch / magic user. Maleficent is only immortal now under the special circumstances of the curse in the sense she can never truly die, and can continously regenerate.

You forgot one thing Nat, that Maleficent also a dragon, although if she was born or use magic to become one is unknown. In legends, dragons are usually depicted to be able to live hundred of years old. So it's very possible. My theory is that after Bael's disappearance, Morraine learned magic, become Maleficent/Dragon and countinously search a way to recsue Bael because she felt guilty for leading him to the BF. After a very long period of time, she found two magic beans that was able for her to transport to Neverland, but at the same time, she also fell in love with Aurora's father. Aurora's father tricks her and took the beans and use it to reunited with his True Love Ariel that was a mermaid in Neverland, thus start her hatred against the Aurora's family.
