Doula care can be the difference between
a family that thrives and one in crisis

Imagine… a parent in our community is anxious and depressed, has multiple children, and no community support.

The family is struggling to pay for food, utilities, and rent. They’re on the brink of homelessness. Mom finds out she is pregnant with a new baby.

Who will be there for her?

A person sitting by a window, holding their head in their hand, appearing distressed or upset.

We are trusted advocates for families who have minimal support

That’s why our community partners refer families with layered needs to receive support from our doulas.

We are often the first person a struggling parent calls when they find out they’re pregnant, returning home from birth, or experiencing loss. They trust us because we are of and for the community.

Some of the many ways we have supported local families include:

  • Prenatal education

  • Mental health connections

  • Housing assistance and utilities support

  • 1-on-1 support through pregnancy, birth, and postpartum

  • Breastfeeding and lactation support

  • WIC benefits coordination

  • Navigating grief and loss

  • Employment and childcare navigation

Families love working with our doulas

I’m so grateful for my doula.

She was so supportive. I was grateful to have someone who advocated along with me when the hospital staff tried pushing things that I already said no to.

My doula is a treasure. Having a doula there to advocate for me, especially when my husband was out of the room tending to our toddler, showed me how imperative a doula is especially to first-time parents or those who have a hard time advocating for themselves.
