*Due to the current recommendations surrounding personal contact and the spread of COVID-19, on a daily basis we are considering your family’s health and evaluating our doulas’s safety in providing in-home and hospital care.

When in-home or hospital support is not possible, we are already prepared to support you and would love to talk about how it may benefit your experience.

Helping to facilitate newborn-parent bonding in those early whirlwind days
Helping discern and implement YOUR unique parenting style
Getting systems in place to help you succeed and relax
Emotional encouragement, affirmation
Birth story listening
