Doula and Labor Support
"Mommies-to-be should feel happy, safe and optimistic during pregnancy. With doula and labor support, we help you to be your happiest and best self."
What is Doula?
The doula is a professional trained in childbirth who provides emotional, physical, and educational support to a mother who is expecting, is experiencing labor, or has recently given birth. Their purpose is to help women have a safe, memorable, and empowering birthing experience.
What does Doula do?
Most doula-client relationships begin a few months before the baby is due. During this period, they develop a relationship in which the mother feels free to ask questions, express her fears and concerns, and take an active role in creating a birth plan.
How do they communicate?
We make ourselves available to the mother by phone/ video call in order to respond to her questions or address any concerns that might arise during the course of the pregnancy.
Do Doula also aid moms-to-be during labour?
During delivery, doulas are in constant and close proximity to the mother. They have the ability to provide comfort with pain-relief techniques including breathing techniques, relaxation techniques, massage, and laboring positions. Doulas also encourage participation from the partner and offer reassurance.
