Doula Services
A BREATH OF LOVING SUPPORT DURING PREGNANCY, BIRTH AND POSTPARTUM
What is a Doula?
Doulas assist women and their partners through pregnancy, labor, childbirth, and the postpartum period. Toni offers four types of support:
⦁ Physical- Helping you through labor pains by offering nurturing touch, position techniques, & guided imagery to calm the nervous system and promote relaxation.
⦁ Emotional- Holding space for emotional and spiritual transformation. Empowering you to make decisions for yourself and to give birth in the way that feels appropriate for YOU.
⦁ Informational- Making sure that all evidence-based information is understood so that informed decisions can be made. Also having resources and referrals to other services in the area.
⦁ Advocational- Teaching you how to advocate for yourselves, but also being an advocate for your wishes.

Doulas are professional space holders
Creating a peaceful, receptive, safe environment, while validating any emotions, feelings, words or choices.
Birth is sacred, and a rite of passage.As a doula, I want to make sure you know how powerful and wise you really are.

Postpartum Doula Care
As a postpartum doula, I provide emotional and physical support in your healing from childbirth, techniques for soothing your new baby, and helpful coping tools for your role as a new parent. My main role is to nurture the Mother by preparing easily digestible & nutritious meals, assisting with light housework, providing childcare for siblings, and providing a listening ear.
