A doula is a trained and experienced professional who provides emotional, physical, and informational support to expectant parents before, during, and after childbirth. They are a valuable companion who helps you navigate the challenges and uncertainties of labor and birth, offering comfort, guidance, and advocacy. Doulas empower you to make informed choices and can enhance your overall birthing experience.

A postpartum doula is a trained and experienced support professional who provides assistance and guidance to new parents during the postpartum period, typically in the weeks or months following childbirth. Their role is to offer emotional support, practical help with newborn care, breastfeeding, household tasks, and provide valuable information on infant care and maternal recovery. Postpartum doulas aim to ease the transition into parenthood, reduce stress, and ensure that parents feel supported, confident, and well-rested during this transformative time.

It's never too early or too late to consider hiring a doula. Many families hire a doula early in pregnancy to benefit from comprehensive support, but even if you're in the later stages of pregnancy, a doula can still provide valuable assistance.

These two classes teach similar materials but you have the option to choose the one that works best for you. Our in person series is 6 weeks long and meets every Wednesday. This can be a great option if you are hoping to meet other expectant families and make friends. It is also great if you are a more hands on learner. Our online series is great if you like to work at your own pace, have a schedule that doesn't accommodate the in person series or if you'd like the ability to do classes on the go!
