Della the Doula
What is a Doula?
A doula is a companion professionally trained to provide continuous, one-on-one care to birthing persons and their partners. We uphold the four pillars of support, which are emotional support, physical support, and informational support as well as advocacy and partner reinforcement. Doulas are not medical professionals however, we are educated on medical subjects related to fertility, pregnancy, postpartum, and newborns to better enrich our client’s experiences. A doula would not replace your medical provider but instead, work alongside them to elevate your birth team.
Supporting birthing people and their families
Birth Planning
When it comes to preparing for the arrival of a new baby, a birth plan can be an incredibly helpful tool for ensuring that everyone involved is on the same page. Not only does it provide a clear outline of the birthing person's preferences and priorities, but it also helps to ensure that medical professionals are aware of any special considerations or requests that need to be taken into account during the delivery process. At your initial prenatal appointment, we will discuss essential choices that are typically presented during labor, but often without much notice. This will enable you to make informed decisions in advance. Once all decisions have been made, a clear and concise document will be created for your medical team to reference during labor and delivery.
Placenta Encapsulation
Placenta encapsulation is the process of preserving the placenta for consumption by the birthing person after childbirth. This practice has numerous potential benefits, including:
-Restoring iron levels in the blood
-Boosting milk production
-Increasing energy levels
-Reducing postpartum depression rates
-Decreasing the likelihood of postpartum hemorrhage
-Encouraging the release of oxytocin hormone, which encourages bonding with your newborn and helps the uterus return to its normal size
Our placenta encapsulation service guarantees the highest standard of cleanliness and care for your placenta. We will steam, dehydrate and encapsulate it with great attention to detail.
Postpartum and Recovery
Becoming a new parent can be an exciting and overwhelming experience. The range of emotions and responsibilities that come with caring for a newborn can be challenging, which is why services geared toward supporting a healthy transition into new parenthood are so important. You will receive personalized service options that cater to your unique postpartum needs, including:
-Emotional and physical recovery support after childbirth
-Light housekeeping duties to alleviate stress
-Errand running on your behalf
-Assistance with newborn care, including feeding, diapering, bathing, and comforting
