What is a doula?

  • ​A trained professional that provides logistical, physical, and emotional birthing support for expecting mothers and her entire family.
  • Facilitates an optimal transition starting from before birth and continuing through the crucial weeks after birth.
  • Provides information and guidance, as you prepare and execute your personalized birth plan.

​Think of your doula as a birthing coach, cheerleader, and advisor. You and your family don't have to do this alone!
