Birth Support
The word "doula" is said to come from ancient Greek and loosely translate to "a woman who serves."
Doulas are trained professionals who can provide physical, emotional, and informational support to mamas before, during, and shortly after childbirth. They are individuals who help mamas work toward their birth goals and provide support for a hopeful and satisfying birthing experience. They are not healthcare professionals. Rather, they are women supporting other women through birth, like our ancestors have done for centuries.
Let's not forget the partners. The role of a mother's husband/partner/significant other can never be replaced. That is not the intention of the doula. A birth doula's role is not one to overshadow or take the place of the partner in the labor and delivery room. Rather, the doula offers support to the partner as well. The partner can focus on the needs of the laboring mother and also enjoy the experience of their child's birth because they can be present as a parent.
