Is a Labor and Birth Doula Right For Me?
Do you have specific desires for your Pregnancy or Birth? A doula can help prepare you for any type of birth plan, wether that be an unmedicated or a medicated birth. Wether that birth be at a birth center or a hospital.
Are You Looking for Additional education and/or Support for your Pregnancy or Birth?
Doulas work tirelessly to make sure that you have the information and support to make informed decisions and gain physical, emotional, and informational help throughout your pregnancy and labor. A doula can also support you by advocating for you, your baby, your family, and your rights. Studies show that families who take a childbirth class have better outcomes and are more likely to be satisfied with their birth experience.
Do you want to learn more about birth and your rights?
Doulas are invaluable sources of a wealth of knowledge and can be a great way for you to expand your knowledge. Families who are informed of their rights and informed on basic elements of birth are more likely to make informed decisions and more likely to be satisfied with their birth experience overall.

Spinning Babies
Spinning Babies is ground a breaking company that is dedicated to healthier and empowering birth! I am so grateful for all they do! They have many amazing products and services but they also have a lot of free resources!
“We teach physiological release rather than a mechanical manipulation or force. The assumption that birth is a passenger powering through a pelvis (The old 3Ps paradigm) reduces creative, body-centered options for parent or provider alike. The release of the baby can be as natural as the release of hormones. Self-care and specific body activities restore body balance and make room for the baby. Babies can put themselves into the best positions possible for childbirth.”

Closed Knee Pushing
“Traditionally pushing is done with knees wide either sitting, squatting, kneeling, or on the back. This is a good way to open the pelvic inlet, or top pelvic opening. However, sometimes babies get hung up getting through the pelvic outlet, or the bottom pelvic opening. This is where closed knee pushing comes in!
Around The World
This video was taken by Missionaries in Kenya. It is fun to imagine different ways families prepare and learn about birth around the world. Education is very limited in third world countries. Many people do not understand basic health information. To learn more about this ministry check out their facebook page.
