Labour, Delivery and PostPartum Doula Services
I am a Labour & Birth and Sacred PostPartum Doula in the Quinte area. I have training to assist and coach you through your birth with Advanced Comfort Measures, Rebozo techniques, Sacred Postpartum support, breast feeding support and have been specially trained to assist HypnoBirthing clients through their birth. As a Labour and Birth Doula I offer support for all deliveries-natural, medicated, Cesarean, hospital and home (assisted). Support for you and the experience you want to have. Pregnancy and Birth are things that I am so passionate about! I want to help you to make it the experience that you want it to be. As a Sacred PostPartum Doula I can offer in home services to assist you with your newborn including breastfeeding techniques, offer helpful methods for healing, belly binding for vaginal deliveries and post delivery comfort measures. Some people believe that you don't need Doula support for a Cesarean birth or if your partner or support person are present for your birth. The fact is that a Doula can assist you with some amazing comfort measures, teach those to your partner and/support person, help to educate you on all of your options and support you and your partner/support people through this amazing event in your life. Having a Doula does not mean that you can't use pain medications to assist you through your delivery. It has been proven that having a Doula present can shorten the labour you experience and has been proven to reduce the incidence of Cesarean births. Having a Doula can help you in some pretty amazing ways. But the most important is understanding that your birth is YOUR birth, and a Doula is there to empower and guide you through it. Every Mama should have a Doula by her side. Your prenatal appointments will consist of working out your birth wishes, different types of comfort measures available to you in labour, mediation techniques, breathing techniques to practice, and birth education. You ARE a Sacred Mama and I would be honoured to assist you in this amazing event in your life!!
