Birth Doula Services

What is a Birth Doula?

A birth doula is a non-medically trained professional who supports, advocates, educates and nurtures families as they go through pregnancy, birth and the early postpartum. We are hired by YOU and therefore our focus is simply to support you in the way you desire!

We support in the following ways :

Emotionally

Pregnancy and birth is a very emotional experience. A doula can bring some peace to the anxiety by normalizing the feelings and bodily sensations that take place. Doulas help you work through fears and help you to connect deeper to your own intuition, helping you to confidently birth the way you want.

 

Spiritually

Supporting you with positive affirmations and truth. You were created to do this. You are meant to birth this baby. Praying for and with you, reminding you of your beliefs and by holding space for your spiritual journey.

Physically

A soothing touch anywhere from massage to hip squeezes or simply holding your hand can definitely bring comfort and a sense of control. Focus on breathing, changing positions and movements, nurturing through food and drink as well as help with birth space set-up and more.

 

Informationally

By providing evidence-based information, clients are able to make informed choices and thus trust their intuition. With this education, doulas help you learn to self-advocate and gain confidence in your body and it’s ability to birth babies.
