How will I support your birth?


 

Physical

I come equipped with a Mary Poppins bag of techniques and tools to make you feel at ease. As your doula I’ll be there to press the right pressure points, support you in positions to ease your contractions and to hold you when you need. I’ll be there anticipating and tending to your physical needs during birth.


Informational

As your doula, I make sure you and your partner have all the up-to-date information you need to make the choice that’s best for you, your baby and birth. Throughout your pregnancy, I am available at your fingertips to ask even the simplest of questions.


Emotional

As your doula, I will be a continuous, comforting presence offering reassurance and encouragement, showing a caring and empathetic attitude and helping you and your partner work through fears and self doubt about pregnancy and birth. Sometimes you need a strong voice to tell you to keep going. Sometimes you need a small voice reminding you to breathe. Whatever emotion you're feeling, I'm there to support you every step of the way.
