Doula Service Offerings

As Your Birth Doula…

I’ll support you and your family, honoring this sacred time to assist you during your pregnancy, birth, and the postpartum period. Professionally trained as a childbirth assistant, I specifically provide emotional, physical, and educational support. During pregnancy, for example, I can support you as you uncover any concerns and preferences about childbirth, and provide information about holistic and natural remedies to minor pregnancy discomforts. I may also use relaxation techniques such as massage, acupressure, other physical comfort measures, and breathing techniques prior to and during your birth. It’s all up to you.

With my interest in neurolinguistics and experience as a HypnoBirthing instructor, I believe in establishing the practice of positive inner dialogue, affirmations, and visualization as the foundation of your birthing practice and personal birthing success. These practices in addition to our discussions about the physiology of birth, evidence-based birthing practices, and birth advocacy tools work together in miraculous ways to help you achieve a wonderfully fulfilling birth experience. This is what I aim to help you achieve, as you deserve nothing less.

Child Birth Education/Coaching

Instructor Liz Harvin offers the Mongan Method, which uses 6 key techniques to get back to instinctive birthing, help women get back to trusting in Nature’s way of birth, relax and let their bodies and babies do what is needed.

Why choose HypnoBirthing?

• You will learn about the history of birthing and how the birthing muscles work in perfect harmony – as they were designed to – when your body is sufficiently relaxed and you trust birth;
  

• You will learn how to achieve this kind of relaxation, free of the tension and resistance that fear creates;

• You will learn to use your natural birthing instincts for a calm, serene and comfortable birth.

When you have your baby with HypnoBirthing®, you will not be in a trance or a sleep. What you will experience is similar to the daydreaming, or focusing.

You will be in good spirits – totally relaxed, but fully in control.
