What is a birth doula?

A birth doula provides physical comfort and emotional support to the birthing person before, during, and immediately following their birthing time. The birth doula will also be a resource for evidence-based information and will help the birthing person advocate for their informed decision-making power. A birth doula can also be a support for the birthing person’s partner or others invited to the birthing experience to ensure everyone has a positive memory of this amazing event.
