Birth Doula Services
Where ever and however you give birth, your experience will impact your emotions, your mind, your body and your spirit for the rest of your life. — Ina May Gaskin
Studies have shown that when a Doula is present, labours tend to be shorter with less need for medical interventions and overall greater maternal satisfaction. Doulas also assist in creating a more relaxed postpartum environment, which enhances the mother-infant bond, encourages and eases breastfeeding as well as family adjustments.

What to Expect
My role as a Doula at your birth is to provide continuous informed and supportive care to create the most positive birth experience possible. I work and observe you continuously to ensure that your physical and emotional needs are met as you work towards bringing your new love into this world.
Leading up to your birth, I will meet twice to establish your birth wishes highlighting your hopes for a positive birth experience, practice various comfort measures and positions to labour in, normalize the birth process and prepare you for the early days of life with a newborn. we will also build our mutual trust so you feel confident and safe with your assistance during your labour and delivery. Aside from these two meetings I am available by phone, text and email to answer any questions or concerns you may have during your pregnancy. As your Doula I am available 24/7 once you reach 34 weeks.
Once labour is established, I provide continuous care beginning in your residence or in the hospital. I provide hands on physical and emotional support throughout your labour and delivery by encouraging, informing, motivating, and aiding in your comforts all the while striving to meet your hopes for a positive birth experience. Once your little one/ones have joined us earth side, I will continue to provide ongoing support for 1-2 hours postpartum to ensure breastfeeding has been established (if desired) and that both you and your newborn/s are adjusting and bonding well.
Finally, I provide two postpartum visits at your residence to process your birth experience, support and aid in breastfeeding and/or formula feeding, support and aid in newborn care and also to ensure that everyone is adjusting well to their new family life.
