As doulas, we provide information on pregnancy, birth and postpartum newborn care. We can explain childbirth, what choices one has in the delivery room, and address any questions or concerns someone may have regarding their pregnancy. When possible, we attend births where we focus on the person birth and their needs, like comfort measures and positioning during labor. When needed, we monitor any physical trauma sustained during birth.
Postpartum support may look like assisting with feeding, providing newborn care information or emotional support, such as shining a light on postpartum depression and pointing families to resources.
We have this page, mostly as a way for volunteers to find us. Here you are able to provide us with contact numbers of people looking for our support though direct messages. We know transportation and Wi-Fi are luxuries to most of the people we want to help, and we are ok with meeting them where they are and providing them the support they need.
Thank you
