BIRTH SUPPORT
You just had the most amazing ultrasound- where you got to see YOUR BABY. It’s an actual human. It’s REAL.
And it has to come out. What now?!
-Cue moment of panic-
This is where we come in.
We become your people. Your personal Google. Your safe place. Some even call us their Pregnancy BFFs. You can call, text or send us a meme anytime you need to talk through the pregnancy thoughts on your mind. From birth plans to feeding tips, we’re here to remind you that you’ve got this. (Our relationship starts with a complimentary consult- read about how to pick the right doulas here.)
Here’s the deal: we won’t tell you what you SHOULD do. Our only goal is helping you figure out what feels right for YOU. Between our ongoing chats and your prenatal appointment, we’ll talk through your hopes, fears, and plans to make sure you feel ready for this big day - Because this is your birth and we want you to feel in control.
And then… The big day arrives.
When you’re ready for us, we magically appear - whether that’s at your home, the hospital, or a birth center.
What does a doula do during labor?
Think of it like a dance. There are moments we’re hands-on, and others when we take a step back. We’re a calming presence and constant support, always anticipating your next need.. We often hear, “I looked over at you and you gave me a look that let me know that everything was okay.”
We offer position ideas, encourage your partner to eat, drink and rest, and remind you that you have the power to make the choices that feel best for you. We continually insure that you feel safe, heard and respected.
Two things are are definite- we will never take the place of any other member of your support team. And we will fully support your decisions, no matter what they are.
After the newest addition to your family makes their appearance, we remain your person. As the attention shifts to the tiny new human in the room, you remain our top priority.
It doesn’t end when birth is over.
We follow-up with you, check in on you, answer your ongoing questions, and continue to be your people.
