What is a Birth Doula?
In short a birth doula is a non-medical practitioner who joins the birth team and becomes an advocate for the family, a guide for the parent(s) to be and a spiritual and provides emotional and spiritual support throughout this amazing rite of passage. A doula can be many a thing but the greatest role is that of spiritual and emotional support and all it entails. Imagine having an on-call bestie with a grandmother's wisdom. That is what you can hope for in a doula.
At Rites of Wellness, we are offering sliding scale doula services to BIPOC families. This is a limited time offer.
