Support shouldn’t stop after birth.

A postpartum doula is there to support you during the early weeks and months after your baby arrives. They provide hands-on, non-judgmental support with things like:

✨ Infant feeding (breastfeeding, pumping, formula, or combo feeding)
✨ Newborn care and understanding your baby
✨ Emotional support as you adjust to life with a newborn
✨ Answering your real-life questions

You don’t have to figure it out alone. We offer free postpartum doula support for families on Medicaid. (Note: Medicaid does not cover the services, we use this as an eligibility guide to determine need)

This World Doula Week, we’re celebrating the impact doulas make.

We know the research: lower C-section rates, fewer preterm births, increased breastfeeding rates. But the true impact is best seen through the voices of the families doulas support, because those stories show what that care really feels like.

Hear from some of our clients about what their doulas’ support meant to them💙

This week, we’re celebrating World Doula Week and the incredible impact doulas have on families and communities every day 💛

To better support and strengthen this workforce, we want to hear from doulas across Alabama!

If you support or have supported birthing families in Alabama, we invite you to take this Doula Workforce Survey. Your voice will help shape policies, Medicaid reimbursement, resources, and supports that reflect the realities of doula work.

Big news! 🎉
