Giving birth should be your greatest achievement not your greatest fear.– Jane Fraser (Weideman)
If a doula were a drug, it would be unethical not to use it. ~ John H. Kennell, MD
Having a Doula has been proven to reduce cesarean sections, reduce the need for pain medication, reduce the need to augment or induce labor, and reduce the time labor takes.
As a result more women find greater satisfaction in their birthing experience and greater bonding with their babies when they have a Doula. All births not just natural ones can benefit from a Doula.

A doula is a childbirth professional that serves women by reducing discomfort and pain during labor with continuous support including massage, counter pressure, relaxation techniques, advocacy and education. This allows for a quicker recovery for both mother and child. I have expanded my prenatal massage and childbirth education training with Doula training that gives me added comfort techniques for labor including techniques for optimal fetal positioning, emotional support to help the mother and partner deal with unexpected situations in labor, and mother advocacy to help them create their optimal birth experience.
