A DOULA (also referred to as a professional birth assistant) is a woman experienced in childbirth who provides continuous physical, emotional and informational support to women throughout pregnancy, labor and during the postpartum period.

A doula provides non-medical assistance and works cooperatively with the medical staff to ensure that you have the birth experience you desire
