What is a Doula?

In the past, we lived in communities where friends and family would tend to the birthing people and their families after. As our world and communities shift, we are called to fill the role of guide, believer, teacher of advocacy and friend to so many families.

“We spent hours chatting while she prepared food, and while I had my baby contact napping on me or breastfeeding. The early weeks postpartum can be stressful and lonely so I always looked forward to her visits.  When she wasn’t cooking, she was eager to help with my baby - playing with her and soothing her while I rested, helped with naptime, and offered suggestions around things like baby wearing, effective burping strategies, breastfeeding, and more.”

Testimonials

“We spent a lot of time with the professionals from NYC Birth Village around the birth of my first child. Thanks to these lovely, warm, friendly, responsive, and caring ladies we were able to have the birth experience that we really wanted.”

-Helene Darmanin

“I went from a woman who doubted my body, my strength, my female power, because of everything that happened to make me lose faith in myself, and transformed into a woman that advocates for her wants. ”

-Kelly Jo Barber

“Their instinct alone is unrivaled; they knew what needed to be done, how it needed to be done and when it needed to be done. If only thank you's were enough. Highly, highly recommend!”

-Lee Landor

“In addition to helping me understand practical aspects of baby care, she also helped me process the huge variety of postpartum emotions that come along with a new child. On top of everything else, she is a very, very talented cook!”

- Lillian Coryn

“In all of our interactions with them, they were professional, reliable, and passionate about their work. My wife and I debated back and forth whether to get a doula, but after the baby came, we were extremely glad we did.”
