SO, WHAT IS A HOLISTIC DOULA? AND DO I NEED ONE?

Doulas have been around as long as women have been giving birth and are a key component to ensuring SAFE, KNOWLEDGEABLE, & SUPPORTED birthing experiences for their clients.

A doula is a trained companion who supports individuals through health-related experiences, such as childbirth. Doulas also provide ongoing emotional, physical, and educational support.

​A doula does not replace your partner or support person, instead we provide knowledge and support to prepare everyone before, during, and after the birth of your child. 

​Having the support of a doula for your prenatal, labor, or postpartum care is like having a friend to guide you who's been where you are currently, who will not judge your lifestyle or parenting choices, but will educate our clients to ensure you feel empowered when preparing for your newest family member.

HOLISTIC DOULA CARE & SUPPORT

What is a holistic doula?  At In Day's Care LLC we are certified in and specialize in many different spiritual wellness services that when used alongside our doula services, to foster a more holistic and all natural experience. More often than not, we are introducing our clients to new practices and perspectives that they continue to use long past once our services have ended.

​In Day's Care LLC takes an intuitive and holistic approach to prenatal, labor, & delivery, and postpartum relief/ recovery support.  Holisitic doula services provide educational, emotional, and physical support that is grounded in holism and focused on balancing the mind, body, and spirit.  Through the use of different healing practices, I encourage my doula clients to make informed decisions and to help them transition into their new roles AND a more holistic lifestyle, while also providing them the tools to implement these practices into their parenting choices.

BIRTH
​PLANNING

A birth plan is a way for you to communicate your wishes to those caring for you during your labor and after the birth of your baby. Creating a birth plan empowers you to become informed of all your options during labor. At the same time, it’s a tool to let the team caring for you know about your preferences.
