Having doula support has been proven to decrease the amount of unnecessary medical interventions and increase the likelihood of positive birth outcomes. 

 

Doula support can:

- Decrease the risk of cesarean by 39%,

- Decrease the risk of a low 5-minute APGAR score by 38%

- Shorten labors

- Decrease need for pain medication

- Decrease risk of being unhappy with your birth experience.

As a doula, I work as a birth partner. I assist in pain management and find ways to encourage progressive labor. I help you to make educated decisions about your birth preferences. I help you to effectively advocate for the birth you desire. I am your unwavering support person.
