What Is A Doula?
|
A doula is a woman who is trained in the field of pregnancy, labor processes, breastfeeding, and newborn and mother care. She helps women with emotional and physical support through the last stages of pregnancy, birth and during the crucial first weeks postpartum. She helps as a labor doula by attending birth as a continuous presence who encourages a positive birth experience. She helps the new mother and family adjust their roles to include parenthood as a postpartum doula. At Earth Mama, our mission is to nurture the pregnant and new mother so that she may in turn nurture herself and her baby. |
