Chicagoland Birth & Baby

📣Did you know most of our clients are not first-time parents?! That's right, most of our clients have had children before... and didn't love their pregnancy journey or labor experience.
So when they get pregnant again, they do things a little differently!
💜They research who they can add to the team to improve their birth experience.
💜They read books and podcasts more aligned with the birth they want.
💜They investigate what options they may have that they did not know about before.
💜They go on a deep journey of healing.
👉Most of the time, the research leads to doulas. We are a well-studied tool with many benefits and virtually no adverse effects. We sit and listen to past birth stories, trauma, or even simply small disappointments. We get to know your family and what would make this experience better and more empowering for you, and then we give you a roadmap to help you get where you want to go this time.
❤ As a doula, there are few things as rewarding as watching someone have a healing, redemptive birth. To finally experience the magic and connection that can happen when you feel safe, loved, and supported throughout the entire experience.
🫶Wanting to learn more about doula support? Visit our website and book a complimentary consultation with our doula team today.

Registration includes two attendees and a full colored and bound book of class materials to reference and bring to your birth.
Class investment: $350 for the full weekend intensive. $250 for the Saturday session and $150 for the Sunday session, if attending only one session. Time for Q and A may extend class times slightly.

Doulas and Partners - The Perfect Team!
I am often asked if doulas replace or take away from the partner's role in labor support. The answer is absolutely not. We are a team, an extra set of hands (because dad can't hold his partner up and squeeze hips at the same time), and a vessel of knowledge on all things labor. We support both parents so they can soak in all the moments of joy on this big day, without the stress and fear.

This is a real picture of real labor support with one of our amazing families and our doula, Tia. Dad's got Mom in his arms, giving her the strength she needs, and Tia's got the counter pressure providing much-needed pain relief under the loving watch of their midwife.

Want to learn more about how doulas can support partners in labor so they can be the support moms need? Reach out to us today for a complimentary consultation to talk about your vision for birth. We can't wait to meet you :-)

A follow up to my last video. As a postpartum doula who has fed hundreds of babies at this point in my career, there are a few things I notice that point to a potential feeding issue. My goal is to get families the proper help before little signs become big issues. Often pediatricians tend to wait until there are red flags to validate concerns and address issues but I think care should be more proactive when there are soft signs of struggle. I am not qualified to diagnose or treat any feeding issues but I will always share concerns with families and get them connected with the right support when things venture into not normal territory.

Feeding issues in the first few weeks can feel so daunting. But it's pretty common and there are a lot of resources for support ♥️
