What is a Doula?

A birth doula is a trained birth assistant who provides support to a laboring woman and her partner. While she is not a medical professional, she can offer a wide range of comfort measures during labor, from massage to aromatherapy to continuous reassurance and pain coping techniques. Pronounced doo-lah and meaning "woman's servant", the word has now come to mean a woman experienced in childbirth who provides continuous physical, emotional and informational support to the woman before, during and just after childbirth.

Women supported by a doula in labor have been shown to have:

    * 50% reduction in cesarean sections.
    * 25% shorter labor.
    * 60% reduction in epidural requests.
    * 30% reduction in analgesia use.
    * 40% reduction in forceps use.

It is not a traditional classroom setting.  It's a comfortable discussion between expectant parents and an experienced childbirth professional on specific topics.  Group size is usually small so there is time to address individual situations and concerns.  

Course content focuses on understanding childbirth issues and the benefits and risks of interventions and the importance of choosing the right care provider for you.  We will discuss the process of birth as well as how our current societal traditions and expectations affect birth to help you in your decision-making process.  Labor coping techniques will be taught in a down-to-earth hands-on manner incorporating many tried and true methods.  Each class will cover nutrition, relaxation and coaching practice and the majority of time a birth video.

$200 for the whole series

Private classes $50 per hour min. 3 hours

Private classes $350 - unlimited hours (average 3 separate 3 hour classes)

"Financial Aid" and scholarships available for those who qualify, and trades will be considered.  Please contact me if money is an issue, as I strongly believe that every woman deserves the support she desires.
