Doula Services

A Doula is a caring companion trained to support and hold space for someone in labour and childbirth, as well as other major life events and transitions. A Full Spectrum Doula accompanies persons of all genders in reproductive health matters, be it during pregnancy, childbirth, postpartum, loss, the fertility journey, abortion or birth control. A Doula's primary concern is their client, and tending to their needs in a holistic way. Doulas work to enhance any existing support and care networks already in place. 

Why a Doula?

  • Doulas are invaluable for the transition and adjustment to a new life situation, fostering connection, easing recovery and enriching physical, emotional & psychological well-being.

  • Doulas are professionals trained to support you during pregnancy, labour, birth and reproductive health decisions. Doulas are part of your chosen team, ensuring optimal care for YOU in this transformational time.

  • Research shows that continuous one-on-one childbirth assistance from a Doula supports the body's physiology, reducing the rate of unnecessary interventions and decreasing fear and anxiety.

  • Doulas aid in processing and integrating your individual birth experience, and may assist you during the challenges of the postpartum, providing essential community support and reference networks.

As your Birth Yogadoula, I provide emotional, physical and informational support for you and your partner during labour, childbirth and the postpartum. I encourage comfort through movement, breathing, relaxation, massage and awareness techniques. Continuous support from a trained doula can positively influence your labour process, promoting a healthy start for the whole family.
