WHAT IS A BIRTH ATTENDANT/ DOULA ?

A doula is a qualified birth attendant that works exclusively and continuously for benefit of the woman, her birth, and her baby – she does not provide medical, nursing, or midwifery care, nor comment on, interpret, or judge medical care.

A doula can provide physical, emotional, informational and educational support throughout your pregnancy, birth and beyond. Women can form a trusting relationship with her doula, who can provide a constant source of care during pregnancy, labour, birth and the postpartum period. This type of care can have very positive outcomes for women and their babies, but be difficult to achieve in typical models of care in Australia.

A doula can work in a home, hospital or centre setting, and work alongside midwives, obstetricians and other professionals to help create the ideal team and environment for the birthing woman.
