Labor Support

Benefits of a doula!

How a doula can help:

A Doula (which may also be called Childbirth Assistants, Labor Support Professionals, Labor Coach, or Birth Companions) does not replace the partner. Instead, she helps support the partner so that he can love and encourage the laboring woman.


A Doula provides continuous, uninterrupted support throughout labor and delivery. She offers massage, suggestions for position changes, relaxation techniques, and reminders to stay hydrated and empty her bladder. She also believes in a woman's ability to birth her baby. 

Studies have shown that having a doula may decrease:

  • Epidural use by 60%
  • Cesarean birth by 50% 
  • Pitocin use by 40% 
  • Narcotics use by 30% 
  • Forceps use by 30%
  • Length of labor by 25%
  • Incidence of Postpartum Depression
  • Levels of Anxiety

As well as an increase of:

  • Successful Breastfeeding
  • A more positive birth experience
  • Higher chance of spontaneous vaginal birth
  • Having higher regard and increased sensitivity toward baby
