Birth Support
A birth doula is a trained and certified professional who provides continuous physical, emotional, and informational support to the mother before, during, and just after birth. Studies have shown that when a doula attends a birth, labor is shorter with fewer complications, the baby is healthier, and they breastfeed more easily.

Postpartum Support
A postpartum doula is a professional support person trained in the needs of the family in the days, weeks, and months after birth or the addition of a new baby. Postpartum doulas offer non-judgmental support, guidance, evidence-based education, and practical hands-on support immediately after birth through the first year. Postpartum doulas help with newborn care, infant feeding, mother care, light housework, transitions for siblings, organization, establishing routines, and much more!
