FAQ
What’s the difference between a doula and a midwife?
A doula provides non-medical support: emotional care, advocacy, and physical comfort measures during birth and postpartum.
A midwife is a medical care provider. We work beautifully together — doulas don’t replace your clinical team, we complete your support system.
Do you only support unmedicated births?
Not at all. Whether you're planning an epidural, a home birth, or a cesarean, our role is to support your decisions — not direct them.
Every birth is valid. Every family deserves support.
What makes your classes different from hospital or prenatal programs?
Our classes are intentionally small, medically informed, and deeply human.
We go beyond textbook content — you’ll leave feeling prepared, empowered, and seen.
Do you offer birth photography and provide doula support at the same time?
Yes — when you book both services, we’re intentional about flow and presence.
Support always comes first, and we only capture what feels right in the moment. You can expect documentary-style storytelling, not staged photos.
When should I book?
We recommend booking your birth doula & photography between 12–25 weeks, as we take a limited number of clients to ensure personalized care.
Postpartum doula support fills quickly — we suggest booking ahead in your third trimester.
To ensure all birth class materials are covered, be sure to register by the start of your third trimester.
