Birth doula

A woman in birth is at once her most powerful, and her most vulnerable. But any woman who has birthed unhindered understands that we are stronger than we know.

- Marci Macari

Birth Doula Services

Each Doula's services vary. Below are a sample of services provided by our doulas. Please contact us if you need help determining which doula meets your needs.

  • Referrals (if desired) to midwives, doctors, childbirth educators, lactation consultants, chiropractors, etc.

  • Prenatal visits (not including the no-cost initial consultation). During these visits, we will discuss your birth history, your desires for your current birth, and your birth plan. We demonstrate for you and your partner massage techniques, positions, and exercises beneficial during your pregnancy and labor, and various comfort measures.

  • Phone/e-mail/text support.

  • Continuous on-call support when you reach 37 or 38 weeks gestation.

  • Continuous labor support when you go into labor. Depending upon your preference, Your doula will come to your house or meet you at the hospital/birth center, and will remain with you until the birth is complete.

  • Initial breastfeeding support.

  • Postpartum visit. We will visit you in your home when you are ready. We will discuss your birth experience and address any needs you might have at that time, as well as evaluate breastfeeding progress.

Please note that each doula works for herself and herself only, and is not an employee of Atlanta Birth Doula. We strive to retain only the best doulas on our website, but we are not responsible or liable for their work in any way. If you have a complaint against any of the doulas listed herein, please let us know so we can reevaluate our relationship.
