Our Birth Doulas Support All Kinds of Birth
A Birth Doula is an experienced, professional, non-medical support person that can help you and your partner navigate and cope with pregnancy, labour and birth. A Doula does not ‘catch’ the baby, do medical procedures, check dilation or blood pressure; that’s the job of your doctor or midwife. A doula is a VERY important member of your birth team because their only job is to focus on you! You deserve constant support during your labour and birth no matter what kind of experience you’re hoping for. We support ALL kinds of birth!
Our Doulas have attended births at home, the Birth Centre, and in every hospital in the Greater Toronto Area! We are proud to support mothers regardless of their birth wishes. Whether your goal is an un-medicated birth, if you are unsure about interventions and medications, if you know FOR SURE that you want an epidural, or … something in between, we are here for you. Also, we can be your Birth Doula if you are having a TOLAC (VBAC attempt) or a scheduled Cesarean birth, because everyone can benefit from help, reassurance and support for their birth!
Our Doulas Can...
provide information & explain Expectations to relieve anxiety
give hands-on physical support to manage contractions
offer suggestions for coping with early and active labour
support your partner to be as involved as you/they want, and give them a break!
Having a dedicated, calm, knowledgeable, patient, non-judgemental support person (who knows you, your partner and your preferences) can make a huge difference to your
birth experience.
