Investing in and Hiring a Doula

 
 

I Love My Doula!

What is a doula? Why you should hire one, and questions to ask when interviewing!

You deserve a doula.

Mama, ask for a doula. No, fight for a doula. You will have a safer, healthier birth if you partner with a doula to be by your side. You will have a better birth story and better memories of bringing your baby into this world. This has been proven countless times.

When I wrote the Birth Story book, I had been practicing for fourteen years and my clients’ C-section rate remained in the single digits. While you can hire a doula at any point in your pregnancy; the earlier the better. My clients typically hire me around their third month of pregnancy. Then we get to spend the next six months building a relationship.
