Both Mary Jo and Rachael are professionally trained birth doulas through the organization DONA International. Doulas provide physical, emotional, and informational support to expecting families during pregnancy, labor and birth, and the immediate postpartum period.  Birth doula support can lower cesarean rates, shorten labor, and reduce the need for medical intervention as well as help facilitate bonding with your new family.

As doulas, our goal is to help you and your family welcome its newest member in a warm, gentle environment.  We do not have our own birth preferences but rather recognize and embrace the different beliefs and birthing practices of every family we support. 

If you are interested in using a birth doula, we provide complimentary consultations.
