A doula is a professionally trained person that supports birthing mother physically, emotionally, and informationally during pregnancy, birth and postpartum.
Doula can help support you in the type of birth you desire. They help foster an environment that supports the normal physiological birth, help with comfort measures, provide moral and emotional support, as well as provide information.
They help your partner help you (without your partner having to be an expert on birth). They do everything in their power to put you at the best chance for a beautiful, informed, and empowering birth experience possible. They are pillar of calm during birth’s intense moments and hold space for this momentous life event.

How can a Doula make your birth experience better?
Emotional Support
Doulas are trained to provide emotional reassurance, comfort, and encouragement during labor. They are a steady presence, helping to reduce fear and anxiety by listening to your needs and offering empathy.
Physical Comfort
Doulas use various comfort techniques like massage, breathing exercises, relaxation strategies, and positioning advice to ease labor pains and encourage relaxation. This physical support can help you manage contractions more effectively and feel more in control of the birth process.
Advocacy and Communication
A doula helps you communicate your birth preferences clearly to your healthcare team. They provide information about the birth process, helping you make informed choices, and ensure that your voice is heard in medical decision-making.
Partner Support
Doulas also support your birth partner, guiding them on how they can be most helpful during labor and birth. They work as a team to create a nurturing and calm environment.
Personalized Care
Every birth is unique, and doulas adapt to your specific needs, helping to create a birth plan that reflects your values and desires. Whether you’re planning a home birth, hospital birth, or a birth center, a doula helps ensure that your experience aligns with your vision.
Postpartum Support
After birth, doulas offer support during the early days of parenthood, helping with newborn care, breastfeeding, and emotional recovery. Their support continues to make a positive impact during the transition to parenthood.
