Birth Doula
Choosing
a doula is a very personal endeavor. It is important that a
mother-to-be finds the one with the best combination of personal
connection to her as well as knowledge
about her craft in order to optimally support and serve her during her
labor and birth. Complications and interventions are significantly
reduced when a doula is part of the birth team overal lessening need
for pain medication and cesarean section. Doulas are available to work
in hospital, home and
birth center settings.
