Birth Doula Services
Evidence Based Birth (EBB), American College of Obstetrics and Gynecologists, and the World Health Organization (WHO) agree that continuous doula support has a positive impact on labour outcomes, breastfeeding, and mothering. Evidence shows that continuous support shortens labour, lessens the need for pain medication, intravenous oxytocin augmentation, forceps, vacuum extraction, and cesarean section. Continuous support of a doula in the hours after birth encourages bonding and increases the chance of baby having a successful first feed which supports a positive breastfeeding journey.
The role of a birth doula is one of emotional, physical and practical support throughout pregnancy, during labour, and immediate postpartum. Trained with a detailed understanding of birth physiology, pain management principles and techniques, breastfeeding, and emotional and physical preparation for birth, my role is to support mama on her transition from maidenhood to motherhood.
I work gently and with love, helping mama come into her own——becoming confident in her innate maternal wisdom and learning to trust her body and baby.
Doulas do not offer medical advice. We work together with the birth team of your choice.
