BIRTH DOULA SERVICES
(Not Available At This Time)

One of the most valuable gifts a birth keeper can offer is consistency.

Once labour starts, I show up when you need me, where you need me and stay by your side until after the baby is born. Following your birth wishes, we work together through breath, movement, and massage, offering water, snacks and endless encouragement.

As a trained professional (though not a medical one), I offer grounding support throughout your birth journey, ensuring you feel safe, honoured, and informed every step of the way. 

I am not there to advocate for you but to empower your decision making and help you find the right questions to ask if faced with an emergency situation.

My role further extends to supporting your birth partner, helping them navigate the unfamiliar territory of childbirth and ensuring they feel included throughout. As a birth doula, I can attend home birth, hospital birth, and both c-section birth and vaginal birth experiences.

Birth Doula Services Include:

  • Meet and greet: Free of charge, no obligation, Let's connect, discuss your needs and get acquainted. 

  • Prenatal Visit: Around 36 weeks this session is to hear your story, answer questions and prepare for birth.

  • Birth Wishes: What are your hopes and choices for your ideal birth experience

  • Hands-On Comfort Measures: Learn techniques for both you and your support person.

  • 24/7 On-Call Support: From 38 weeks until birth.

  • Labour and Birth Support: I’ll meet you at home or at the hospital and help navigate the early stages of labour through to your last push and stay until you are settled with your baby.

  • "Cultural Practice: I'll hold space and support cultural beliefs and traditional practices important to you.

  • Immediate Postpartum Support: Up to 2 hours following birth.

  • 1 Postpartum Visit: Reflecting on birth and infant feeding, and connecting you with any community resources wanted.

  • Birth summary: Sharing insights and stories from my perspective of your birth.

Each and every family is special and carries their own unique set of needs.  Please reach out to plan a care package specific to yours.
