Who are my doulas?
While supporting families in need, we also train new and upcoming doulas. You will be matched with a doula in training (mentee) and an experienced doula (mentor). The mentor guides and assists the mentee as needed prior to and during the birth and postpartum. Only the mentee attends your birth and has their mentor available if they need support.
