What is a Doula?

As a doula, I offer continuous during pregnancy, birth, and beyond into the postnatal period.

I give information, provide advocacy, and offer support to the birthing person and their family so they can make the choices that are right for them.

I am here for my clients to support them and listen, free from judgment, and with empathy and compassion, as they make informed decisions.

The benefits of having a Doula

 

  • Continuous support from one person through pregnancy, birth and postnatally
  • Access to the right information needed to make decisions
  • Shorten the length of labour
  • Reduce the need for pain relief by 30%
  • Decrease caesarean section rate by 50%
  • Positive support for the parents and family
  • Lower rates for induction of labour
  • Greater success establishing breastfeeding
  • Flexible support at home when you need it

"If a doula were a drug, it would be unethical not to use it."
