As your doula, I would encourage you to make your own decisions, my role will be to help you examine the possibilities you wish to explore for your pregnancy, birth and postnatal period. This transition into motherhood can, at times, be intense and powerful and the profound nature of the natural, physiological journey a person’s body embarks on is unique and precious to them. I feel this is a time that a supportive community is of upmost importance. I believe that we should feel that we are safe and cared for, being encouraged and supported to follow the path that is unfolding for us, that our voices are being heard and our needs being met. I believe that parents should be encouraged to trust their instincts, to explore and develop their own parenting philosophies and allow this to be a nurturing, natural and unfolding pathway.
