Birth Doula

Giving birth is one of the most challenging and rewarding events we experience in life. You deserve to give birth in a way that resonates with you. With knowledge, trust in the birth process, and our support and encouragement, you can have the birth you've always imagined. 

Newborn

Studies have shown that with continuous labor support by a doula, women experience:

​

  • Shorter labor

  • Decrease in the use of Pitocin to augment (quicken) labor

  • Decrease in the use of medicinal pain relief, such as an epidural

  • Decreased Cesarean rate

  • Increased chance of a spontaneous vaginal birth

  • Increased birth satisfaction

Your doulas are highly trained in the physiological process of labor and experts in the art of comfort. We work together with your medical team to provide holistic care and guide you through the waves of labor.
