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.
