Doulas provide non-medical emotional, physical and informational support to parents during pregnancy, birth and postpartum. Parents across Canada are realizing the benefits of doulas! The support of a doula increases parents' satisfaction with their birth experience and reduces the likelihood of intervention.
At Doula Speed Dating, approximately 10 doulas will be in attendance for face-to-face mini-interviews. Get to know multiple doulas while cutting down your research and interviewing time. There is no expectation to commit to a doula right away - just test the waters & see which doula is right for you.
