What is a Doula?

October 4, 2013 By AdminDoula1

newborn sleepA Doula assists expecting mothers, partners and families with all non-medical aspects of planning for, delivering and adapting to the newest member, or members, of the family.

A Doula’s role can vary depending upon the individual family’s needs: from planning for and assisting during the birth, to assisting with postpartum issues including sleeping, lactation, depression and more.

Historically during the time of birth, women have been surrounded by other women who have experienced birth and are able to offer physical, practical and emotional support. The role of the Doula continues this tradition by offering years of experience to help you make the most of your birth experience and beyond.
