BIRTH DOULA

My path to becoming a HypnoBirthing® Childbirth Educator wasn't one I had anticipated during my early years. Originally aspiring to be a teacher, life took an unexpected turn when I found myself pregnant with my first son during my second year of massage school. This life-changing event sparked a deep interest in understanding the physiological changes in a woman's body throughout pregnancy, childbirth, and postpartum.

My journey into motherhood was a mix of excitement and fear, but unfortunately, it didn't turn out as positively as I had hoped. Despite diligently reading recommended books and preparing for childbirth, I felt unprepared, disempowered, and like my knowledge and understanding of my own body were disregarded during my birth experience.

Consultation

From the moment you call, you have unlimited access to doula support and I’ll stay with you to make sure you’re all settled in after birth (usually around 2 hours post-birth). Most clients call in active labour when they’re ready to go to the hospital/birth centre, but the decision is always up to you.

At about 36 weeks, we will go through your Postpartum Planner Worksheet and discuss all things recovery and newborn care. We will also go into the doula goodie bag and go over all the comfort tools for your labour. This is also when the remainder of your fee is due.

I will walk you through what you can expect during labour and birth, we’ll talk about your birth preferences, and I’ll answer any questions you might have. To ease your comfort in labour, we will go over comfort measures, breathing, and options for labour positions.

Welcome to the Birth and Blossom family! You have access to online resources, a virtual library, and my support. Now is the time to complete your Birth Preferences Worksheet and/or postpartum planning checklist.

I take on a limited number of clients each month to give you my full attention. To reserve your spot, a 50% deposit for birth support and a $150 deposit for postpartum support is due at the time of contract signing. All of this can be done electronically.

We get to know each other over a quick coffee or chat and see if we make a good team. This is your time to ask any questions about doula support and how it looks in practice.

Postpartum Visit

About 1-2 weeks or birth, I will come to your home to check in on your wellbeing. This is a great time to ask any questions about feeding, sleep, or just take the time to debrief about your birth and discuss this new world of motherhood. If you have signed up for additional postpartum support, we will schedule those visits as well.
