Some of you may be thinking, “I know I need help, but what exactly does a doula do?” Excellent question! A doula is a highly trained birth, postpartum and lactation professional who provides continuous physical, emotional and informational support to a mother before, during and after childbirth. This helps her achieve the healthiest, most satisfying birth experience possible.

YOUR BIRTH, YOUR WAY

All births are different: natural, medicated, vaginal, c-section (cesarean), and VBAC. Whatever your plan is, our birth experts are here to provide a nonjudgmental support so those goals can be met. Whether it be through labor positioning, counter pressure, relaxation and breathing techniques, or sincere emotional support, our evidence based methods will help you have the empowering birth you desire.

DAYTIME BLISS

Coming home with a new baby is such a blessing, but can be a little scary (especially if it’s your first). Don’t worry - our daytime postpartum professionals will take the stress away by helping you navigate through “baby life” and stay by your side for support. They’ll not only guide you through the ins and outs of baby care, they’ll also help by doing those time-hogging (but necessary) tasks like bottle washing and prepping, baby laundry, nursery organization, meal prep, and more! Leave that stuff to us and do what really matters, like making memories as a family with your sweet baby.

NIGHTTIME PEACE

Being a mom is amazing, but being a well-rested mom is simply magical. Let our certified postpartum doulas (sometimes known as a “night nurse" or “night nanny”) do all the hard work through the night so you can be refreshed during the day. While you’re resting, you can be at peace knowing our experienced postpartum helpers are gently caring for your baby, helping them get the sleep they need to be their happiest selves during the day with you.
