Prenatal Visits

You deserve to go into your birth experience feeling grounded, informed, and ready to flow through whatever lies in store for you throughout labour and birth. We hope to help you feel both prepared and powerful for what is to come and that begins in our prenatal sessions.

Every birthing family who receives doula care from us will receive three prenatal visits prior to their due date. These are important times for us to get to know each other, to practice coping tools for labour and birth, to explore your hopes and dreams for your birth, and to strategize about how we can best prepare for the arrival of your baby. We do our best to accommodate your unique needs, including additional prenatal visits if circumstances mean that you could use more support.

On-Call Labour Support

Birth can be unpredictable, but receiving quality support doesn’t have to be. With the support of your birth doula, you can ride the waves of labour confidently knowing that someone has always got your back, is always on your side, and wants you to walk away from your birth experience feeling empowered and supported no matter what comes up.

We provide hands-on, in person support to the birthing person and their support persons in Calgary, Alberta. We help with comfort techniques, position changes, cheering you on, and helping you to advocate for yourself with your health care providers during your labour and the birth of your baby. We customize our care to suit your needs and preferences, so you can have a meaningful and empowered birth, whatever that looks like for you.

Postpartum Visit

Welcoming a new baby into the world is a big deal, and so is welcoming in this new version of yourself that was birthed along with your child. We know that it can take time to get settled into your new normal and to process everything that happened during the birthing time. You don’t have to do this alone.

Within a few weeks of your baby being born, we provide a postpartum visit to families who desire one. This is a wonderful time for us to reflect on your pregnancy and birth experience, provide feeding support, and answer any questions you might have about your postpartum body or your new baby. This can be an exciting and emotional time. It’s normal to have lots of questions or to want to share your feelings with someone who has got your back.
