Caitlin Peace - Birth Doula

About Caitlin

Hi I’m Caitlin! I believe that birth is one of the most sacred and powerful experiences a person and a family can go through. I believe that you already have everything necessary inside of you to give birth. My goal is to support, uplift, and protect the type of birth experience you want to have. I understand the necessity for equity, access, and inclusion in birth work and strive to create an environment where all are welcome regardless of race, ethnicity, gender identity, gender expression, sexual orientation, religion, etc.

Frequently asked questions

What happens in a prenatal meeting?

Over a series of prenatal meetings, we will go over: -Your thoughts/attitudes/feelings towards birth -Your birth preferences and how we can protect those in the birthing space -Pain management techniques -Your postpartum plan -Your care plan

I'm planning on getting an epidural, why would I need a doula?

I think there's a common misconception that doulas are only helpful in unmedicated birth settings - however, this is far from the truth. My goal as a doula is to support and protect the birth experience that you want to have and serve as another calming presence in the room. If you want to have an epidural - you SHOULD get an epidural! I will be there to help you: -strategize when is best to get an epidural based on your intended birth outcomes -help you with positioning to keep you comfortable -support you and your family in making decisions around your care -advocate for the choices you have made and help you adapt if those choices need to change.

What is the difference between a doula and a midwife?

Midwife: A midwife is a trained healthcare professional who provides medical care to women during pregnancy, childbirth, and the postpartum period. They are qualified to handle pregnancies, deliver babies, and provide prenatal and postnatal care. Doula: A doula provides non-medical, emotional, physical, and informational support to a pregnant person before, during, and after childbirth. They focus on comfort measures, advocacy, and ensuring the individual's wishes are respected.
