Doula Services
Prenatal
The more you can prepare and educate yourself for the labor and birth process, the more you will know what to expect and what your options are when things don’t go to plan (and they won’t!). It’s key to get to know each other and create a bond that will extend into the day of birth! We work on creating a birth vision and talk through postpartum care, as well.
Labor and Birth
I will be with you during the whole process! Providing physical and emotional support, as well as sharing knowledge around options you are given by the medical professional so that you can make informed decisions about your care.
Postpartum
As exciting as it is to leave the hospital and head home with your newborn, it can be very scary and overwhelming. With my help, it doesn’t have to be! I’ll be there for a few hours in the days that follow the birth to provide a few healthy fresh-cooked meals and support around the house (if wanted) so that you can focus on self-care, recovery and bonding with your baby. Emotional support is extremely important too, and I’ll be available for as long as you need..
