Why you need a doula?
A doula can provide physical, emotional, and informational support throughout your pregnancy, labor, delivery, and postpartum period. During labor, a doula can help you manage pain and suggest different positions to help you get through the process. During delivery, a doula can be a advocate for you and baby. Lastly, a doula can offer knowledgeable advice and support regarding breastfeeding and other postpartum concerns.
Welcome to Labor in Love Doula Services
I became a doula because I love seeing how a family is united through the joy of a new life. Each birthing mother and baby is different and deserves individualized and focused care. I believe in every woman’s right to have the birth that she desires, giving birth is an experience that is never forgotten. As a woman comes into this new space in her life, she’ll need the support and attention of someone who is there for her, not solely the baby. I take time to get to know you and the rest of your support system so that we can create the birthing team that you need.
