A Doula is an experienced woman who helps other women during labour and birth. The concept is not a new one. Through the ages, women in labour have been surrounded by their mothers, sisters, neighbours, or friends, all women who had some experience with the process of birth and could provide the empathy, support and advice a woman needed. In the last few decades, the way families are spread out; this is no longer a realistic possibility for most. So the concept of a professional Doula was born.

A Doula brings a caring heart, a comforting touch and an always growing body of knowledge and experience.
