About Nurturing Nexus Doula Services
As a DONA International-trained Birth Doula, I am dedicated to providing compassionate, personalized support throughout your birthing journey. My services include 24/7 availability via phone call or text message to address all your questions and concerns, ensuring you feel informed and empowered every step of the way.
My basic package offers two in-home prenatal visits where we will explore pain management techniques, discuss how to prepare your body for birth, and develop a personalized birth plan that reflects your preferences and goals. During labor, I provide continuous care from active labor onward, offering emotional support, physical comfort measures such as massage, aromatherapy, and non-medicated pain management techniques, and guidance in breathing strategies to promote relaxation and confidence.
Additionally, I help your support person feel equipped to advocate for and assist you during labor. My care extends beyond delivery, with initial postpartum support at the hospital and a follow-up visit to ensure a smooth transition into parenthood. My goal is to create a nurturing and supportive environment, empowering you to have a positive and fulfilling birth experience.
Finally, we end with a postpartum visit to go over newborn care and reflect on your birth story.
