Why invest in a midwife and doula?

A doula beautifully compliments midwifery care. They work together to both comfort and protect you throughout labor. Your midwife focuses on your clinical care and overall well-being while a doula focuses on emotional and physical support for the whole family. Services provided through our Doula-to-Midwife program can be added to your care plan at no additional cost!

Can my partner (mother, sister, friend) be my doula?

It is hard to watch someone you love go through something challenging for hours (days). What you are about to do is intense, demanding, and unpredictable. This takes a tole on your loved ones and their ability to trust the process and focus on you.

Their role is to love and protect you. A doula helps them do that, allowing them to be present and support you in the best way possible.
