Doula Julia - TLC Birth Support

What is a Doula? traditionally a woman - who provides a service ... that service being a continuous support person during pregnancy, labour, birth and afterwards. I encourage, inform, advocate for and supports both the woman in labour, and her partner and family.

Research shows the presence of a Doula Companion:

•shortens labour
•reduces intervention rates, including caesarean
•decreases use of pain medication
•decreases overall rate of complications
•improves breastfeeding experiences
•reduces rates of postnatal depression
•facilitates positive early infant-parent interactions
