What is a Postpartum Doula?
A Postpartum Doula is a trained, non-medical professional, who provides practical, confidential, non-judgemental, physical, and emotional support to a family following a birth or adoption. Postpartum Doulas serve as an extra set of well-trained, trustworthy, helping hands available to assist the entire family in their home during the postpartum period. A Postpartum Doula's goal is to work herself out of a job by encouraging and supporting parents' efforts to increase their knowledge, confidence and family harmony.
Who can use a Postpartum Doula?
Anyone who wants to! The unconditional, non-judgmental support of a Postpartum Doula can benefit any parent. Additionally, individuals who live far from extended family or close friends will find a Postpartum Doula to be a strong source of practical, physical, and emotional support when you need it most and others cannot be physically near.
