Hospital birth Support during and after pregnancy

Hello Allison, I hope this finds you well. This is my first pregnancy. I am in need of a doula to guide myself and my husband, Shaheen, through the pregnancy, delivery, and postpartum period (including breastfeeding). We are hoping you can provide us with specific, actionable ways for Shaheen to support me during pregnancy, especially during labor, and during the postpartum period. I hope to labor at home as long as possible, avoid the epidural if possible, and I really would like to avoid a C-section. I am eager to learn about natural birthing techniques and positions that work with my body and gravity. Finally, my husband and I are Catholic, so we would appreciate a doula who is comfortable with prayer. Thank you for your time. Cheers, Elise 925-352-1942

Hi! I hope you're doing well. I'm currently looking for a birth doula for my upcoming delivery and came across your profile.

I'm looking for a doula who can provide a calming presence, thoughtful guidance, and strong advocacy throughout labor and birth. I'd love to learn more about your approach, your availability, and what it's like to work with you. If it seems like we might be a good fit, I'd be grateful to connect. Thank you for your time, and I look forward to hearing from you.
