What is a Doula??
The term doula is Greek for slave or servant.
A Doula is a woman who attends the birthing family before, during, and just after the birth of the baby. She is trained to deliver emotional support from home to hospital, ease the transition into the hospital environment and be there through changing hospital shifts and alternating provider schedules. The doula serves as an advocate, labor coach, and information source to give the mother and her partner the added comfort of additional support throughout the entire labor. There are a variety of titles used by women offering these kinds of services such as "birth assistant," "labor support specialist" and "doula" .
My doula work is just beginning. I am in the provisional status and will be interested in getting the experience working with families in the birth process so feel free to email me with any questions you may have at this time. I am also home schooling to be a midwife.
