Strength & Dignity Service Packages
“Without counsel plans fail, but with many advisers they succeed.” Pro. 15:22
Why a doula?
The word “doula” is an ancient Greek word, meaning “a woman who serves.” A doula is there during pregnancy, birth, and postpartum to serve you and your family. So why hire a doula? Do they actually make a difference? Yes! They absolutely do. Here are some statistics on births when the mother has a doula present:
39% Decrease in the risk of a Cesarean Section
15% Increase in the likelihood of spontaneous vaginal birth
40% Decrease in the use of artificial oxytocin (Pitocin)
60% Decrease in requests for an epidural
25% Decrease in the length of labor
