Frequently asked questions

Full spectrum doulas are pro-choice! We serve EVERYONE!!! We trust in your ability to make the decisions that are right for you, your body, and your family from a place of informed consent. We will support you with No Judgement! Families come in endless shapes, sizes, combinations, and means. Our doula support is never “one size fits all,” and we will meet you wherever you are on your path.

The goal of the postpartum doula is to nurture the mother and her family into becoming parents.  A postpartum doula is there to help a new family in those first days and weeks after bringing home a new baby.  With professional support from the doula, the mother and the family experience success, gain knowledge and become more self-confident with their baby. Postpartum doulas can assist with feeding the baby or bring the baby to the mom to nurse, proper burping, changing diapers (cloth or disposable) swaddling, sleeping techniques, newborn education, light housekeeping, meal and bottle prep.

Studies have shown that Doula Care can decrease: length of labor, use of epidurals, other medications, and C-section rates.

First and foremost we want to serve you and help you to get it figured out. Get started early and setup a payment plan. You can share with your community how important a doula is to you and let them know that their support in affording one would mean the world. Add it to your baby registry or wish list. I encourage you to review your finances and see where you can make adjustments. Payment plans and Gift Cards are always available.

Dry brushing technique can be done during pregnancy to provide an extra boost of energy, lymphatic support and extra exfoliation to reduce cellulite. It provides stimulation of the lymphatic system while enhancing blood circulation, which is why cellulite may appear. Dry brushing has also helped women ward off stretch marks and assist in tightening the skin during the postpartum period.
