Why do you need an AyuDoula?

Everyone needs support and there is no greater time than right after the birth of a child. An AyuDoula provides new Mums with the emotional and physical support that family members and friends may find difficult because of the emotional attachment.

Together, we will:

  • Find ways for your new birth as a Mother to be as enjoyable, relaxing, nurturing, healing and loving as possible.
  • Come up with plans on correct nutrition for your recovery as well as for baby, should you choose to breast feed.
  • Come up with strategies that bring you happiness and keep you connected to who you are, your values, your choices and your beliefs.
  • Help with teaching you settling techniques and wrapping techniques of baby.
  • Discuss any extended help needed and how to keep your oxytocin levels high and stress levels low.
  • Listen to your partner on their expectations and discuss both individually and as a family.

My promise to you, is that I will:

  • Hold a non-judgmental space for your family as a whole.
  • Keep an open heart and an open mind for all that you share with me in total confidence.
  • At all times, do my best to hold love and respect to all your requests both individually and as a family.
  • Help prevent postpartum depression.
  • Support you in finding the right support outside of the Doulas scope if need be.
  • Help avoid depletion, mentally and physically
  • Keep you nourished and nurtured both through food and oil massage.
