A doula is for everyone.
Epidurals, cesareans, hospital births, home births, natural births and VBACs (among others). A doula is for all birth plans, for all family dynamics, all people.
We know that with continuous labor support, you are set up for greater success in labor, and for that reason I believe that a doula is not only for everyone, but should be accessible for everyone. If you have questions about what doula support looks like, whether it’s financially feasible for you, or whether we’re a good fit, click the link below to schedule a consultation. 👇🏼

Decrease in dissatisfaction with birth experience
A satisfying birth experience involves three major factors: 1) that the birthing person never feel abandoned 2) that the birthing person never feel as though their or their baby’s life is in danger, and 3) that the labor experience never feels out of control.
