Unwavering support, commitment to be there for you and your partner 100%. Having doula support at your birth can reduce the likelihood of cesarean, induction, pain med use and improve breastfeeding success. Just as important as all these great statistics is the increased satisfaction people have with their birth experience- less trauma, less stress, and more joy! What’s so special about doula support is that it can provide all these amazing benefits!

WE HELP YOU SORT THROUGH YOUR OPTIONS

Everything from where to have your baby, and which childbirth education classes to take through induction discussions, breastfeeding challenges and everything in between. By providing good quality information and helping people to know which questions to ask their care providers, without judgment, we provide the support people need to move forward with confidence.

We know lots of pain coping skills- breathing is just the start- positions for comfort, activities for labor progress, what to expect in different birth settings, all the various interventions and procedures to expect in labor, how to help get breastfeeding off to a good start, and who to turn to when life gets more complicated (lactation consultants, physical therapists, chiropractors, the list goes on and on).[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/2″][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/trx_sc_content][/vc_column][vc_column][vc_empty_space alter_height=”huge” hide_on_desktop=”” hide_on_notebook=”” hide_on_tablet=”” hide_on_mobile=”” css=”.vc_custom_1511524165507{margin-top: 3.5rem !important;}”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column offset=”vc_hidden-lg vc_hidden-md”][vc_empty_space alter_height=”huge” hide_on_desktop=”” hide_on_notebook=”” hide_on_tablet=”” hide_on_mobile=””][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space alter_height=”large” hide_on_desktop=”” hide_on_notebook=”” hide_on_tablet=”” hide_on_mobile=”” css=”.vc_custom_1511528300784{margin-bottom: -1.2rem !important;}”][vc_empty_space alter_height=”large” hide_on_desktop=”” hide_on_notebook=”” hide_on_tablet=”” hide_on_mobile=”” css=”.vc_custom_1511528300784{margin-bottom: -1.2rem !important;}”][trx_sc_title title_style=”default” link_style=”default” title=”Emotional Support”][vc_column_text] 

We hold space with compassion, respect and without judgement. Bringing a child into your family is a transformational event. Having the support of your doula, with an open heart makes it all feel more do-able. We believe in you- even when you are not sure you can believe in yourself.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space hide_on_desktop=”” hide_on_notebook=”” hide_on_tablet=”” hide_on_mobile=””][vc_empty_space hide_on_desktop=”” hide_on_notebook=”” hide_on_tablet=”” hide_on_mobile=””][trx_sc_title title_style=”default” link_style=”default” title=”Physical Support”][vc_column_text]

 

The simplicity of a glass of water easily at hand. That doesn’t sound so complicated, right? Surely your partner can supply this in labor- except that person is also going through a major transformational experience, while bearing witness to their partner going through labor and quite possibly sleep deprived, thirsty and hungry themselves, and dealing with their own worries that they don’t want to burden others with. Remembering the glass of water, or a cool washcloth or an extra pillow here and there- well, it’s nice to know the doula is on task and looking out for these things too.

It’s their birth too! Partner’s provide unique support at a birth as the close bond between parents is unlike the relationship with anyone else present. That doesn’t always translate to knowing how to be good labor support and many partners are looking for a bit of guidance and to take the burden of being “everything” to the laboring person. We help partners be great support, and give them the space to rest or step out as needed during the intense hours of labor.
