A postpartum doula provides the new family with evidenced-based information support with breastfeeding and other feeding options, support with emotional and physical recovery from labour and birth, support with parent/baby bonding, support for better sleep, and support with basic newborn care. The postpartum doula caters to the individual needs of each family.
Understanding the stages of labor is a key part of your birth preparation.

Growing in popularity and use is the hiring of a labor doula or birth worker, to support the birthing process from start to finish. A labor doula is a support person who has responsibility only to YOU, the mama. She has your best interest and you needs in mind, and works to support emotionally and physically.
