Maternal health does not only concern the mothers themselves - it also concerns children and families - since the health of children directly depends on the health of their mothers. If we want to ensure the health of future generations, we need to start by focusing on the health and well-being of Mothers.
Our job is to facilitate and support (physically, emotionally, energetically) moments of care, observation, breathing, bodywork (also in water), movement, rituals and presence. Furthermore, we provide the necessary information to support the mother and the couple in deciding what is best for them in this moment of life.
Proper care in this period of life supports our systems, especially our endocrine, nervous, and neurological systems. In other words: Proper physical care promotes the whole health. And likewise, when our emotional needs are met - receiving the safety, attention, connection, community, recognition we need, our Immune System and our Cardiovascular System are positively affected.
As doulas we operate with the foundations of holistic health, humanized care and an integrated view of pregnancy and person.
