Birth Doula

A birth doula is a non-medical professional who provides physical, emotional, and informational support during pregnancy, labor, birth, and after the baby is born to help them achieve the healthiest, most satisfying experience possible. Doulas are there to help ensure that the birthing person's needs are met, but they don't replace the role of a doctor or midwife.
Here are some things a birth doula can do: provide physical comfort with breathing techniques, massage, and finding more comfortable positions, easing the emotional experience of birth and also helping to create a space where the hormones of labor can work at their best, help encourage and teach families to advocate for themselves with staff, provide information about the entire process of what can happen during labor and birth, help with initiating breastfeeding and/or baby feeding, support the birthing person's family and loved ones during and after the process.

Postpartum Doula

A postpartum doula is a trained professional who offers support to new parents during the postpartum period, often the first six weeks after giving birth. They can provide physical and emotional support, as well as information and guidance on a variety of topics, including: infant feeding, emotional and physical recovery from childbirth, infant soothing, coping skills for new parents, basic newborn care, mother-baby bonding, diaper rash healing, babywearing safety, car seat installation and use. Postpartum doulas can also help with light housework, fix meals, and incorporate older children into the new family dynamic. They are trained to address the specific challenges new parents face and respect the family's parenting style. This can include one visit after birth, up to months with consecutive visits either day or night.
