I am Mariah Prodan. I am a mother to a beautiful and brave 3-year-old daughter, who I breast fed for 11 months. I am a DONA trained who is working towards certification. I am also VBAC certified by theVBACline. I decided to become a doula when my baby sister expressed the desire for a natural birth with her first baby in April. I volunteered to be her doula and signed up for classes the next day. I now know from my own birth experience how important doula support is, I did not have the support of a doula during my covid delivery. A doula would have made all the difference and prevented my epidural. I have been a fulltime Registered Nurse since 2017 with the majority of my background in Critical Care. My career has left me with. I currently work in surgical recovery where most of my focus is on preventing and treating post operative pain through various comfort measures. As a doula my goal is to provide education to alleviate anxiety and stress during delivery. Labor is unpredictable but there is power in understanding and knowing what is normal. I provide my knowledge and expertise to assist and empower during labor. I also work to sooth the pains of labor through various comfort measures while providing emotional support.
