What is a Birth Doula?


​What is a Postpartum Doula? 

Birth doulas are trained professionals who offer continuous physical, emotional and educational support for mothers, support friends/family, and partners throughout the labor and birth process.  Women who have continual uninterrupted support from a labor support professional have fewer requests for medications, half the number of cesarean births, higher breastfeeding rates and an overall higher satisfaction for the entire birth experience.  Prenatal and postnatal support provided. 
​Bringing a new baby home is an adjustment for the entire family and a postpartum doula can help to ease the transition. Both excitement and exhaustion are very common while the family adjusts.  As a postpartum doula, I offer additional support to facilitate an easier shift into life with a new born.

TESTIMONIALS: 

Alexa was amazing and played such a critical role in the craziness of what it was to move and 24 hours later be in the hospital giving birth !!! I already told her she made our experience so amazing and provided such a calming effect on the whole thing… she handled everything like an absolute professional and kept me feeling calm and in control alongside Malik… Malik absolutely needed sleep with not getting any the two nights prior (day before the move he was up til 4 am packing and then movers came at 7 am, the day after the move up til 5 am and then I woke him up at 7 am when my mucus plug came out) to be able to properly support me and having Alexa as well to support me while Malik did cat naps in the hospital was a game changer in feeling comfortable and not alone throughout the process. I am so incredibly grateful for my entire experience and team of people that helped me bring him into this world!

Danielle was a caring and steadfast advocate. She has a soothing demeanor, a calming voice and outgoing personality. The coaching and birth education class she provided (in home no less!) were an invaluable resource that gave me the confidence to make the right decisions when it came to 42nd week of pregnancy and I had to be induced. She was always quick to answer any questions that arose via text or phone calls. During my 13-hour labor she was a constant support. She logged my contraction frequency and duration, checked in with me, and was available to answer all my questions. She also helped me in and out of the tub and used aromatherapy to help with pain. She was invaluable to both me and my husband, we've both said more than once "I can't imagine what it would have been like without her".

I am incredibly grateful for Danielle! This sweet and kind momma helped support and love me during one of the most intense moments of my life. As a first time momma, I was super nervous to go into labor.
Danielle visited with me a few times throughout my pregnancy to help me prepare and teach me about allllll the things. When the big day came, she was there for me in ways I could not have imagined and still find it hard to put into words.
I did NOT NOT NOT want a C-section. After 24 hours in labor and pushing ... my birth plan changed and guess what ... the very thing I was most terrified of became very very real. After my boy was born and doing ok, my husband was with the baby and Danielle stayed with me for about 7 more scary hours of surgery. She was there for me through it ALLLLLLL!
We incorporated essential oils, breathing, massage, friendship and sisterhood. We laughed, we cried, we had a baby! She held my hand and was and is still a beautiful inspiring friend. I am so grateful!
