DOULAS: SUPPORT FOR YOU THROUGHOUT YOUR PREGNANCY
A doula is a person who gives emotional and physical support to you during your pregnancy, childbirth and post-delivery. Doulas are not medical professionals. They do not deliver babies or provide medical care. A certified doula has taken training and passed an exam in how to help pregnant people and their families during this exciting time.
A doula can:
- Teach you relaxation and breathing skills
- Answer questions about the delivery of your baby
- Stay with you during labor for comfort and support
- Provide support after the birth of your baby
Your Neighborhood benefit includes access to doula services to support you throughout your pregnancy journey such as:
- Doula services while you are pregnant
- Birthing classes
- In-hospital delivery
- Doula services after you have your baby
Visit Neighborhood’s Provider Directory or contact Member Services to find a doula provider.
