| Q: What does a doula do? A: A doula provides continuous emotional & informational support prior to, during & immediately following birth. Q: What services do you provide? A: I provide prenatal education, labor support in both hospital & home birth situations. I also provide birth photography if you wish. Breastfeeding support for as long as the nursing relationship lasts will also be provided. Q: What training and/or education is involved in becoming a doula? A: There are many programs that offer training and certification of doulas. Most of them require a 16 (or more) hour workshop, recommended reading, demonstration of a working knowledge of the anotomy & physiology of childbirth, essays, research papers, practical experience, and evaluation from clients & their caregivers (Dr. or Midwife and nursing staff). I am completing training & certification through a nationally recognized organization. Q: What if I want an epidural? A: This is *your* birth! I will not push my views or philosophy on any of my clients. I am here to support both you and your partner & help you achieve a good and memorable birth experience.
