Birth Companion Philosophy
The term doula, birth companion, monitrice, labor companion, labor assistant and birth assistant all carry slightly different connotations depending on the scope of services offered by the individual in their practice, but all refer to an individual offering one-on-one support for a woman in labor.
As a birth companion I offer a birthing mother continuous, emotional, physical,and uninterrupted care for the laboring mother and her partner, helping each couple participate fully in their experience by offering physical and emotional support. I am sensitive to a woman entering into her rites of passage as a mother, trusting in its process. Birthing is a spiritual journey for every woman, every woman who walks the path of motherhood. And knowing this, my nurturing spirit believes that she deserves support and encouragement during birth with a gentle touch.
A birth companion support the partner and involves them only to their level. My goal is to help women and their partners achieve the birth they desire and empower them with laboring skill before, during and after labor. My objective is to assist expectant parents to formulate what is important to them during labor, birth and working cooperatively within the birth team to help realize these goals.
