What exactly does a doula do, and how can they support families during pregnancy, childbirth, and postpartum?👶🏼🤰🏽
✨️I recognize birth as a key life experience, that the mother will remember all her life. I as your doula understand the physiology of birth and the emotional needs of a women in labor. I assist you and your partner in preparation for and carrying out your plans for your birth. I stay by your side throughout the entire labor. I provide emotional support, physical comfort measures, an objective viewpoint and assistance to the women and information she needs to make good and informed decisions. I also advocate for your wishes, communicating with midwives and doctors to ensure your preferences are understood and respected.✨️
