Doulas are an integral part of any birth team. A Doula is an attendant, a friend, and a companion dedicated to providing a mother with the best care possible under a wide range of circumstances. She is a woman that a mother can count on when she is not sure where else to turn.
Mothering & More is an organization that has an understanding of the role a Doula has in the larger scope of maternity care practices. The hope is that some day all birthing women and new moms in our community embrace what is one of the most empowering options available; the services of a Doula.
The following articles will help you to gain a better understanding of what a doula is and how she can help you achieve a positive birth experience.
In our society, the Doula is considered an alternative care provider. However, Mothering & More is hopeful that time will prove the services of a Doula to be a necessity, not a novelty. In many communities throughout our country, more and more mothers are realizing the wonderful benefits of a Doula’s support.
