A birth doula helps to prepare you with the knowledge and tools for your labour and birth, so that you feel more confident going on this journey no matter how it unfolds. The birth doula will be present as emotional, physical and informational support throughout, whether this takes place in your home and/or in a hospital setting.

Doula support benefits any mother who wants to feel more confident during birth. Whether this is your first baby or your fifth, whether you plan a hospital birth or a home birth, a doula meets you where you are. A doula is not here to take your partner’s/family’s place, but to be a supportive, comforting hand and a guide wherever you need.

The best time to book a doula is early in pregnancy, though we welcome mothers at any stage. Connecting earlier would allow us to have our prenatal meetings, get to know one other and build trust before your upcoming birth.

We are DAFGP (Doulas for Aboriginal Families Grant Program) Approved. If you or your partner (if applicable) are of Indigenous descent and reside in BC, please let us know so that we can help you apply for this grant.

Yes. In case you plan to birth your baby at the hospital, we would support you at your home until you are ready to shift to the hospital, where we would meet you and support you until you birth your baby.

This would depend on the type of care and support that you want and need. Midwives provide medical care and may be responsible for caring for multiple families simultaneously. Birth doulas provide continuous non-medical support during labour & birth, whether that be emotional, physical, and/or informational support for you, as well as being a guiding hand for any family/friends you may choose to invite into your birthing space.
