Our Core Values
We believe that . . .
Pregnancy, birth, and death are normal life events, not to be feared or hidden away behind closed doors.
These critical periods of transition present unique opportunities for personal growth and transformation across the lifespan, not just for the individual but for all who share the privilege of being present.
Families are best served by a holistic (mind, body, spirit) approach to health.
Doulas empower families by sharing information and promoting informed decision-making based on their personal values.
Doulas prevent trauma through proactive guidance, mediation, and advocacy.
The essential support services and continuity of care provided by doulas fills gaps in existing medical and social support systems.
Our Vision
We hope to play a part in creating . . .
A world where community-based doula support is available to all families.
