What is a Doula?

A doula is a trained non medical person that supports people through significant life changes such as child birth.

Prenatal- Information is power! Your doula has resources on many things, local lactation consultants, hospitals and procedures, birthing centres, midwives, and so much more to help you have a great pregnancy.
Labour and Delivery- During labour a doula can provide comfort and support. Whether you plan to birth at home, in a hospital , c section or unmedicated, doulas can provide support! Support looks different for everyone and it is the doulas job to find what suits you and your family best.

Postpartum- After delivery the doula will stay for an hour or so, for support in feeding, bonding, transition to the NICU, information and so much more!

Postpartum Doula

A postpartum doula helps once the baby is born. This can be anything from helping with feeding, changing, bathing the infant, to helping parent(s) with healing, recovery, bonding, early detection of perinatal mood disorders. Doulas help the whole family adjust to the new family dynamic.
