 The Road to Awareness

“The word, "Doula," comes from the Greek word for the most important female slave or servant in an ancient Greek household, the woman who probably helped the lady of the house through her childbearing. The word has come to refer to a woman experienced in childbirth, who provides continuous physical, emotional, and informational support to the mother before, during, and just after childbirth.”

A Doula can help the laboring woman to have a safe, healthy, and satisfying birth experience. We support a mothers choice to birth her child in a way she feels most comfortable. Each birth is as individual, meaningful and unpredictable as each one of us.
