What is a Doula?

A Doula...

...offers you and your partner continuous support and encouragement throughout your labor and birth.

...offers effective, non-medical comfort measures designed to ease your labor.

...respects and honors your decisions regarding your labor and works closely with you to help you achieve your ideal birth.

A Doula's Presence At Birth...

...can result in fewer requests for pain medication.

...can result in shorter births, especially for first time moms.

...can result in less complications and less interventions, such as the use of pitocin, forceps and vacuum extraction, and cesarean surgery.
