There really is only one. Esmerelda Weatherwax by Terry Pratchett. He has a lot of good witches. 

So does Eva Ibbotson and Diana Wynne Jones. Let's say Millie Chant for Diana and Heckie for Eva. If you like witches, do read all their books, they are delightful.

Flaxa Mildväder from The Glassblower's Children by Maria Gripe

Morwen from Patricia Wrede's Enchanted Forest Chronicles

Sunny Nwazue by Nnedi Okorafor (Akata Witch)

Extra mention to Circe from Odysseus (and her name is pronounced Keer-keh, not Sersei) Because of this I'm scared to read Circe.
