As your Birth Doulas we will:
-
Meet with you and your support people prenatally to discuss and create your birth intentions.
-
Help educate you on your options, common procedures and policies at your birthing facility, and best practices for self care during your pregnancy.
-
Serve as a physical support during your labor with pain management and comfort techniques such as movement, positioning, and basic body work.
-
Work with you and your support team in making decisions during labor that both support the health and safety of you and your baby as well as stay closely aligned with your birth preferences.
-
Visit with you at home during the early postpartum time period to offer emotional, logistical, physical, and practical support with your healing.
-
Connect you with the most skilled professionals in the area for any additional support you may need or benefit from during pregnancy, birth and labor, and postpartum.
-
If desired, take photos of your labor and birth experience for an added fee. ​​
We strongly believe that every birthing person desiring the support of a Doula should have that support. We also believe that Doula care is an investment into your experience and birth satisfaction. We are happy to set up payment plans and occasionally have the ability to work with a client on a sliding scale or we will connect you with a doula who can; finances should not be a barrier to your access of birth support.
