Doulas cannot provide any type of medical care. However, we are knowledgeable in the medical aspects of labor and delivery so we can help clients get a better understanding of procedures and complications that may arise in pregnancy or delivery.

Limitations of Practice: As a doula, I do not: Perform clinical tasks, such as blood pressure, fetal heart checks, vaginal exams, and others. I am there to provide physical comfort, emotional support and self-advocacy support.

Make decisions for you. I will help you get the information necessary to make informed decisions. I will also remind you if there is a departure from your birth plan. Speak to medical staff regarding matters where decisions are being made.
