The Stork’s Nest Doulas:
Instilling confidence and connection throughout pregnancy and birth
What’s your first step? A free consultation.
We set up a free, no obligation meeting in a location of your choice.
We meet many clients right in the privacy of their own homes but we are happy to choose a more social setting if that is your preference. This first meeting is a great opportunity for us to discover our compatibility and allows us to build a solid foundation of trust. We get to know some of your birth preferences and help you envision a comforting and confident labour and birth experience.
All birth support packages include:
1. Virtual Support
Throughout your pregnancy, all of our knowledge and resources will be right at your fingertips. You and your partner can feel free to ask questions or send us updates via text, email or telephone. It’s our job to hold space for you, answer all of your questions, and to squash all of your anxieties and concerns.
2. Prenatal Visit
As your estimated due date draws closer, we will contact you to set up a prenatal meeting. This meeting is commonly done in the privacy of your home so that you can feel comfortable to discuss all topics related to birth. As a team, we will help you prepare for your upcoming birth by discussing your birth options, demonstrating comfort techniques and identifying any emotions you are having related to the “big day”.
3. 24/7 On-call Support
We consider being a part of your birth team a privilege and so we make ourselves available to attend your birth at any and every imaginable time. You can rest assured knowing your doula has your back!
4. In-person Labour Support
Once you have asked us to join you in labour, we remain by your side until your baby makes its grand entrance. We will be a steady presence as your birth unfolds, alleviating your fears and encouraging you along the way. We are your gentle guide through it all, nourishing your mind, body, and soul every step of the way.
5. Postpartum Followup Visit
As the dust begins to settle and you are adjusting to life at home with your baby, your doula will once again join you, this time for a followup visit. This is a great opportunity to ask us questions regarding newborn care and development.
We are experts at topics such as feeding, infant sleep patterns, bathing and postpartum recovery. There is no question too big or too small….we’ve literally heard it all!! This visit may inspire you to add some additional postpartum support to your birth package. Click here for more information.
We’re here for you.
Pregnancy brings with it a whole host of questions and queries. Because of this, new parents are tempted to turn to the internet for answers but this often leads to more confusion and even anxiety. Relying on your doula’s knowledge and vetted resources is a much better option as you navigate the unknown waters of pregnancy and birth. Who better to turn to than your own personal birth “concierge”.
We are dedicated to building you up, easing your tensions, answering your questions, and encouraging you through your toughest moments. Our ultimate goal is to help you to channel your inner strength and feel safe and supported with your doula by your side every step of the way.
