Doula Services

What is a doula?

The word “doula” comes from the Greek word meaning “woman’s servant.” As doulas, we provide both mom and dad with physical, emotional, and informational support throughout the pregnancy and birth. Our goal is to support and empower you, without judgement, as you learn to ask questions and make decisions in order to have the birth that YOU desire and that your baby needs.  

A note to dads/partners: you play an extremely important role in the birth.  We don’t replace you, we complement you and give you tools so you can be the primary support person. Birth has an extraordinary impact on a family, and we want to help make it the best experience it can be.

Researched Benefits of Doula Support

  • Lower rates of intervention, such as augmentation of labor, epidural, and cesarean
  • Shorter labors
  • Fewer complications
  • Easier transition to motherhood
