Birth Support

BIRTH DOULA

Hiring a birth doula means having the tools to greet your birth fully prepared and beautifully supported, with the reassurance that whatever labor brings, you've got this.

Whether it takes place at a hospital, birthing center, or at home, each birth is beautiful and deserving of personalized support. Birth doula support means you have the resources you need to rock your birth - to feel confident making well informed choices, for yourself and your baby. Birth doula support provides comfort, encouragement, and compassion exactly when you need it, personalized to you and you family. It means your birthing partner is free to be there just for you without having to worry about anything else.

Let me support your family by taking care of all the practical concerns, answering questions and soothing worries as they come up, and by providing gentle guidance for you both. It's YOUR labor, soak it up, live in every moment!

Birth Moves doula services are aimed at informing, empowering and supporting birthing people to find their own birth philosophies and voices for the birth(s) of their child(ren). 

Birth Moves is dedicated to evidenced based birthing and we continue to pursue the most current education in the birth arts in order to better serve our clients.

POSTPARTUM DOULA

Hiring a postpartum doula means having the tools to step into your role as a new parent with regular support related to infant feeding, emotional and physical recovery from childbirth, infant soothing, and coping skills for parents.

The role of a postpartum doula is adaptable depending on your individualized needs, but the focus is on supporting the family during the first 3 months with a new baby, the fourth trimester.  The first few months with a new baby are a very transformative time, the biggest life adaptation you and your family will experience. Let me gently support and guide your family as you confidently glide into parenthood.

I am trained in both supporting the new parent and newborn care, ready to tackle your family's every need. I offer non-judgmental support for new parents, mentoring and aiding you as you nurture your new baby and transition with the growth of your family. Postpartum care is always tailored to your specific needs, with flexible and respectful assistance throughout the beginning of your child’s life to help you relax, recover, and enjoy your baby. Services can include emotional support, talking through your birth experience and answering any questions you have, education in caring for your postpartum body and newborn care, techniques for soothing a cranky or tired newborn, babywearing lessons, diapering and cloth diapering demonstrations, learning to bath a baby, and any other skills trainings desired.
