mission statement

My mission is to prepare,guide and empower expecting parents and their families for their upcoming birth. I help them figure out what is important to them during labor, delivery and postpartum and help them realise this as close as we can. I want women to know and trust their bodies and the natural process of birth. A big part of my mission is to put fun and magic back in the sacred time of pregnancy and birth and accomplish this by offering different services but mainly: Doulaservices and Belly and Baby casting.

Being a doula is a special breed

As doulas we give up xmas evenings,reschedule our kids birthday parties, work on new years mornings, sunday afternoons, saturday nights at 3am. We drive in snowstorms , sleep on sofas, work for sometimes 30 hours shifts, drag our kids out of their beds in py;s, drop them of at the the sitter unexpected, dont drink at parties, cancel outings, skip 2 or 3 meals a day sometimes, sleep with 2 phones next to our beds,if we get to sleep at all BUT ...i also get to witness the miracle of birth, see a new dad cry, get to rock a newborn and help new parents heal their pasts, create awesome families. What else could i ask for........I love being a doula!

I welcome new clients for 09 who like some guidance in discovering the magic of birth. Call for a free interview Lidia 576-8817
