A doula is a trained professional who provides physical, emotional, and informational support to individuals and couples before, during, and after childbirth. They offer guidance and advocacy, helping clients navigate their birthing experience with confidence and reassurance.

Being DONA certified means that I have completed rigorous training and met specific requirements set by DONA International, one of the leading organizations for doula certification. This includes attending a DONA-approved doula training workshop, completing required readings, and fulfilling childbirth education components. As a DONA-certified doula, I am committed to upholding professionalism, ethical standards, and ongoing education in the field of childbirth support.

Yes, doulas can provide valuable support during cesarean births and high-risk pregnancies. They can offer emotional support, assist with birth planning, provide guidance during the surgical process, and support postpartum recovery and adjustment.

As a doula, I do not replace medical professionals. My role is to complement the care provided by doctors, midwives, and nurses. I offer continuous support, personalized attention, and advocacy throughout the birthing process. However, I do not perform clinical tasks or provide medical advice. My focus is on providing emotional support, comfort measures, and informational guidance to ensure that you feel empowered and supported during your childbirth journey.
