What is a Doula? Why Every Birth Needs One
You may have heard the word “Doula,” but do you truly know the power behind it?
A Doula is a certified professional trained to provide continuous physical and emotional support during gestation, birth, and postpartum. But at Feel The Healing, it goes beyond just support—it is about empowerment.
Knowledge is Confidence
My service allows you to gain deep knowledge about the process you are living. From the moment we start, we work on building your confidence, replacing fear with facts.
Together, we will create a Personalized Birth Plan, tailored exactly to how you want your birth to be. This isn’t just a document; it’s a roadmap that ensures your voice is heard in every scenario.
Navigating the “Unknown”
Many mothers worry about the medical environment or the unpredictability of labor. As your Doula, I am your guide through the “unknown.” I help you understand:
- Timing: The ideal moment to go to the hospital so you don’t arrive too early or too late.
- Comfort: How to manage contractions effectively using breathing techniques, movement, and comfort measures.
- Communication: How to communicate confidently with the medical team to advocate for your preferences.
- Options: Understanding medications and interventions beforehand (their pros and cons) so nothing catches you by surprise.
My “Maternitas”: A Unique Bond
Being a Doula is a beautiful career that I am passionate about. I give 100% to my clients, whom I affectionately call my “Maternitas.”
With extensive experience in community health and birth work, I have learned that every birth, mother, and family is completely different. Even if you’ve given birth before, no two experiences are the same. That is why having a Doula is essential—to ensure a masterful, memorable, and safe experience, no matter the situation.
