Episode 28: What I actually DO as a doula | Practical insight into what doula support looks like
About this episode
If you’ve ever wondered what specific, practical things I actually DO as a doula, and thought “do doulas just help with breathing?!”...
Then this episode is for you! 👇
In today’s chat, I walk you through what I actually do for my clients during pregnancy, birth and postpartum – and how it makes a very real, evidence-backed difference.
Including:
- What my support actually looks like throughout your pregnancy + during your birth
- Real stories from real births (like breech babies, operating room saves, and emotional pep talks that changed everything)
- What continuity and trust can be like in the thick of labour
- What I do after the birth that helps you land softly into motherhood
This one’s honest, super practical, and full of heart.
If you’re pregnant or planning to be, you need this in your ears.
Share with a mama who needs to know what real doula support looks like! 💛
