Childbirth Doula Partnership and Mentoring
As a Childbirth doula and mentor, I offer a wide range of services to fit your needs in pregnancy, labor and your first days as parents. I invite you to take the time to read through all of my services.
I wish you the best and look forward to connecting with you.
A Mentor is one who has gone the way before. As Mentors, we bring certain knowledge and experience about: childbirth; navigating through the hospital; parenting; and human nature... beyond what can be gleaned from books. We also know that pregnant women and expectant fathers bring wisdom about their own coping mechanisms, social network, personal assumptions and agreements; However, these men and women have not yet walked the road through birth, the hospital environment, or into parenting themselves, and naturally turn outwards, seeking support and information. So the Mentor dances between deeply listening, being in a solution-focused mindset, encouraging parents' self-awareness and reflection, and clearly and engagingly delivering current, relevant birth information.
Everyone who interacts with a pregnant woman is, in some way, her “teacher.” Telling birth stories, sharing resources, imparting obstetrical information, giving advice or warnings—these are all direct or indirect ways of teaching about birth and parenting. Pam England, Birthing from Within
