Hello parents to be!
I believe that birth is an incredible experience of growth and transformation, and I am passionate about working with families as they embark on this new and exciting journey.
I am based in Calgary, Alberta, and can travel to any birth in Calgary or the surrounding areas.
What is a doula?
A doula is a trained and experienced professional who provides continuous physical, emotional and informational support to the family before, during and just after birth; or who provides emotional and practical support during the postpartum period.
What are some of the benefits of hiring a doula?
Studies demonstrate that simply having an impartial person to support and encourage a birthing mother and her family can decrease the time spent in labor and decrease the experience of pain during the birth process. Other benefits of hiring a doula include: reduced interventions including forceps & oxytocin, reduced chance of caesarean birth, less use of epidurals, greater opportunities for positive experiences of breastfeeding and bonding and greater birth satisfaction.
