Birthcompanion / Doula |
||
There is growing evidence that one-to-one support from another woman during pregnancy and labour is hugely beneficial. Woman often have shorter labours, decreased chances of a caesarean, less need for pain medication and greater satisfaction with their births. A Birthcompanion’s role is to offer help and support with breathing, positions ,relaxation or what ever it is the woman needs. Her presence can be encouraging for the partner/father and enable him to participate at the level he is comfortable with.
Over many years I have been working with couples who had babies at home or in hospital giving birth naturally or needing a caesarean section.
My services include at least 2 pre-natal sessions , the labour and 2 postnatal visits. The cost is £400. Additional pre or postnatal meetings can be booked. For contact and booking go to the Contact page
