Birth doula and postpartum doula services

During your pregnancy I will help you create and facilitate your birth plan, provide evidence based information about your birth options, and offer emotional support to you and your partner.

I will be your continuous presence throughout pregnancy and labor, offering encouragement and praise, helping you through fears and self-doubt, and debriefing with you after your birth.

Physical support helps you feel in control and confident during your birth. This includes creating a calm environment, providing pain relief through comfort measures such as massage and counter pressure, assisting with positional changes to assist with labor progression, and helping with food and drinks.

After the birth of your baby I will provide you with information and support on infant feeding, emotional and physical recovery from childbirth, infant soothing, and coping skills for new parents. I will also help with light housework, prepare a meal, and help incorporate an older child into this new experience.
