What is a Birth Doula? Your Trusted Support System Throughout Pregnancy and Birth

Why Hire a Doula?

Our biggest takeaway from taking the HypnoBirthing Class was being informed! We felt prepared to make decisions and be okay with your birth plan to be flexible. 

Having a birth doula present during childbirth has been associated with various benefits, including reduced rates of medical interventions, increased satisfaction with the birth experience, and improved maternal and newborn outcomes.

The holistic and personalised care a doula provides is also associated with a stronger bond between the birthing individual, their partner, and their newborn. By nurturing a positive and supportive environment, doulas contribute to fostering a deeper connection among the family members, setting the foundation for a loving and nurturing start to parenthood.

When I went into labor, I was able to labor at home using breathing and positions I had learnt through HypnoBirthing and my prenatal yoga classes. husband and doula (Renelle) who were by my side and providing counter pressure and massage on my lower back throughout my surges. I was able to deliver my baby boy without any medication. What impacted my labor moist is what I gained from HypnoBirthing and having a doula.
