 About Traditional Midwifery 

A traditional midwife is a pregnancy and childbirth care provider that provides basic health care, support and advice during and after pregnancy based primarily on experience and knowledge acquired informally through the traditions and practices of the communities where they originated. It includes techniques that have been passed down through centuries, as well as modern, innovative techniques that are consistent with maternal autonomy. Traditional Midwives are community centered midwives who encourage the active involvement of family members and typically are the ones who "catch" / deliver the baby.

What is a Doula?

Doula is a Greek word for caregiver or servant. 

A Doula  is a trained and experienced labor companion who provides the woman and her partner/spouse with continuous support and assistance in obtaining information before, during and just after childbirth. 

 

We understand that BIRTH is a SACRED TRANSFORMATION and an INITIATION. The ultimate job here is to protect the birth space and give the mom the ideal birth experience that she desires. C-Section moms can have doulas too. 

There are several types of Doulas which include but are not limited to: Fertility Doulas, Nutrition Doulas, Antepartum Doulas, Birth/Labor Doulas, Postpartum Doulas, Abortion and even Death Doulas. 

Fertility Doulas assist with prepping and transitioning the woman as well as her partner's lifestyle into a toxic free, wholesome and holistic one to increase chances of becoming pregnant. This is done by customizing a unique healing plan, incorporating herbs, sharing resources, education as well as ovulation tracking support.

Birth/Labor Doulas help provide comfort in assisting a woman through her pregnancy and labor by providing education, emotional, spiritual and moral support during the pregnancy. Birth/Labor doulas provide comfort solutions such as massage therapy, acupressure, emotional and spiritual encouragement, rebozo and more. 

  

Postpartum Doulas provide care to a family once the baby is born to make the period of getting settled and adjusted as smooth as possible. The duties of a postpartum doula is to also provide healing modalities for the new mom such as yoni steams, closing of birth ceremonies, sibling care, light housekeeping and even meal prepping.

Death and Abortion Doulas provide emotional, spiritual and moral support to the parents of the deceased baby whether it is caused by a medically induced termination, miscarriage or still birth.
