Private, in-home, birth education and preparation.

Enjoy all the benefits of Doula-supported birth preparation whether you plan to have a Doula-attended birth or not!

Positive birth and postpartum experiences don't just happen, they are prepared for with intentionality, dedicated time, and trusted guidance. As a Doula and Childbirth Educator, helping families learn about and prepare for birth is one of my absolute favourite things!  Stop scrolling through Youtube and get birth and postpartum education that is tailored to YOU. Your priorities, your concerns, your questions, all addressed in private one-on-one sessions.

Sessions are fully customizable, and can cover any of the following topics:

  • discovering your birth priorities
  • the body in birth
  • stages and phases of labour
  • comfort techniques
  • birth support skills
  • advocacy and navigating challenges
  • working with appropriate interventions
  • preparing for a positive Cesarean section 
  • preparing for a home birth
  • overcoming fears/ anxieties
  • creating your birth plan
  • preparing your body for birth
  • preparing your partnership for birth/ postpartum
  • preparing your postpartum support system
  • infant care skills
  • baby wearing
  • cloth diapering
  • lactation preparation
  • infant sleep

 

Birth education is two-fold; we learn as much about birth as we learn from birth. The lessons you glean from this journey can impact the ways you move through parenting and life for may years to come.
