What To Expect During Each Stage,

During Pregnancy

The Doula introduces herself; a conversation is present between the expecting person and partner. During this time together, there will be question exchange, open dialogue, welcome packet info, intake forms, and protection of medical records. During pregnancy, the Doula will create a safe, brave, non-judgmental space for expressing feelings for each visit. A customizable and personalized birth plan for family dynamics: wants, needs, desires, and outcomes will be available.

Visits will last 30min-2hours. Check-ins between family and Doula will be available.

During Birth

Continuous presence, reassurance, praise, guidance & encouragement will be occurring at this time. During birth, doula will use coping techniques, comfort measures, and information from evidence-based education to support the family.
