Doula and Postpartum Services
Patience Dominick
I believe every expectant mom should be able to have a doula if she desires one.
Placenta Encapsulation
Placenta encapsulation is a traditional practice that has gained renewed interest in recent years. It involves processing the placenta, typically after childbirth, into capsules for ingestion.
Childbirth Education
Lamaze education has come a long way from its simple breathing techniques, and is now based on the best, most current evidence available. Lamaze believes that birth is normal, natural and healthy and that women have the innate ability to give birth and I too believe that! Lamaze also helps reduce the use of unnecessary interventions and improve overall outcomes for mothers and their babies. Millions of parents have achieved their desired childbirth outcomes using Lamaze practices. Being certified with Lamaze allows me to be up to date with the ever changing birthing world. I too believe in the Lamaze practices and am proud to be certified with them so that I can help create knowledgeable, empowered, and confident parents who have the ability to make informed decisions and have the skills to cope with the twists and turns of pregnancy, birth & parenting!

Birth Doula
As your doula I will be fully present throughout your pregnancy, labor & birth.
Before your birth we will meet a few times to build relationship, answer questions & create a birth plan according to your preferences. 2 weeks before and after your due date I will be on call and ready when you need me.
In labor, I will come to either your house or meet you at your birthing location. I will help create a calm, safe environment, and encourage you and your partner towards the birth you desire. I will be by you every step of the way!
After your birth I will stay with you until your little baby is resting in your arms, you are clean, fed, loved and ready to enjoy that precious little blessing you brought into this world.
I will follow up in the days and weeks after your birth to ensure you and your family are doing well! I believe in your ability to birth!
