What is a Doula?

A doula is a woman who provides continuous labor support during childbirth, working together with the mother and her partner to assist with emotional and physical support, as well as relaxation techniques such as positioning and massage. Doulas are women who are passionate about birth and are dedicated to making the experience as comfortable and memorable as possible. Doulas have statistically been proven to reduce the use of epidural anesthesia and the Cesarean section rate.

Birth Philosophy

The bond of sisterhood is a very unique and amazing bond. Your sister is your best friend, your cheerleader and your confidant. Often a Doula’s job is described as “mothering the mother.” My philosophy is “sistering the mother.” I will meet with you several times before your birth getting acquainted and sharing everything I know about pregnancy, labor & delivery. It’s my goal that by the time you deliver you will think of me as a sister. We will laugh together, cry together and I will not leave your side during one of the most important days of your life. That to me is what being a sister is all about.
