To Doula or not to Doula?

Congratulations! You are pregnant and with the great news come a slew of questions- one of which would be whether or not to partner with a Doula for the birth of your child. After much deliberation, you have concluded that indeed, you wish to ensure a pleasant birth experience and will therefore partner with a Doula who will assist you during these intense and powerful hours of labour as well as the immediate hours following the birth of your baby. This is by far the wisest decision one can make which will certainly be cherished during those moments. Both you and your partner will feel guided and empowered, having your space held by your Doula - acting as your right hand while respectfully remaining present.

A Doula, unlike most doctors or hospital based midwives, will spend hours getting to know you and working with you on your birth plan. Assisting you with natural methods for pain relief and keeping you calm and comfortable, awakening your primal and powerful birth instincts which exist within you. Your Doula will help you work through decisions you may need to make and in one word – be your northern star.
