Doula Services / Childbirth Education

From the Greek meaning 'woman servant', a Doula serves as a aide to the mother, partner and baby through the birth experience. Doulas provide non-medical support by offering labor preparation, continuous labor support and post-partum assistance.

A Doula assists the mother and family with the emotional, physical and spiritual aspects of childbirth, and does not take the place of an experienced doctor or midwife.

The mother's partner has a very important role and a Doula will not replace the partner during the birth experience. A Doula will only assist in building a strong support system for the mother, baby and partner.
