Doula's working with your Partner and Family
As a doula my intention is to give you and your support team the space that you need to have a good birth experience. It is up to you both to choose how much you would like me involved the day of your birth. I love to see your partner involved as much as possible. While I offer suggestions and guidance for relaxation and positioning for the new mom. I always want the mother to trust that there will be unending, constant support just for her and her family. If you happen to be a single mother, I offer up a team of doulas to you, it is always nice to have two helping hands while giving birth.
What is a doula?
In ancient Greece the meaning was "a woman who serves"
Today the word means, a trained birth professional that provides constant emotional, physical and informational guidance. We do not give medical advice and not no have any medical training.
