Nurturing Childbirth and Postpartum Support
Doula - (du'lah):
Originally from the Greek word for the most important female slave or servant in an ancient household, but has come to refer to a woman experienced in childbirth who is a non-medical professional providing continuous physical, emotional, and informational support to the mother before, during and after childbirth.
Every woman deserves support for making informed choices about what is best for her body and baby according to her own values and beliefs…
I work with women (& partners) to facilitate the clarification of their preferences, desires, hopes, adding to an empowering birthing experience, leading to a gratifying postpartum experience...
Congratulations on your pregnancy!
Gaining information surrounding your childbirth is more important than ever for every expecting mother (& partner).
Education and information leads to informed choices.
Empowering experiences lead to empowerment.
I strongly believe in and support those experiences -- they pave the foundation for gentle beginnings necessary for the life's littlest starts needed for a future full of love and compassion.
Every Woman, Partner and Baby Deserves an Empowering Birth Experience!
