Doula Birth Support

Your Journey with Valentina as your Birth Doula

As a holistic birth doula, I am dedicated to supporting you through every step of your journey into parenthood. My approach is both science-based and deeply personal, understanding not just the physiological aspects of birth, but also the emotional and mental transitions that come with becoming parents. Here’s a closer look at the packages I offer and what you can expect from our time together.

A Holistic Approach to Birth

My aim is to unite the physiological and emotional aspects of childbirth, providing you with a well-rounded, supportive experience. By combining science-based practices with a holistic approach, I strive to ensure that you feel empowered, informed, and supported every step of the way.

I am here to help you navigate the incredible journey of becoming parents, offering continuous support, education, and care. Together, we can create a birthing experience that is as positive and empowering as possible. If you have any questions or would like to learn more about my services, please feel free to reach out.

I look forward to being part of your journey into parenthood!

Prenatal Appointments: What to Expect

During our prenatal appointments, we will:

  • Discuss Your Birth Preferences: We’ll explore your vision for your birth experience and create a birth plan that reflects your wishes.
  • Prepare for Labor and Delivery: I’ll provide information on what to expect, pain management techniques, and how to create a supportive birthing environment.
  • Address Emotional Well-being: We’ll discuss any fears or anxieties you may have and explore strategies to maintain a positive mindset.
  • Nutrition and Exercise: Guidance on maintaining a healthy lifestyle during pregnancy to support your body and your baby.

The Importance of Postnatal Debrief

After your baby is born, a postnatal debrief is an essential part of the recovery process. During our postnatal debrief sessions, we will:

  • Reflect on Your Birth Experience: Discuss what went well, any unexpected challenges, and how you felt throughout the process.
  • Emotional Support: Address any emotional responses you’re experiencing, from joy to postpartum blues.
  • Infant Care Guidance: Provide support with breastfeeding, baby soothing techniques, and establishing routines.
  • Self-care Tips: Help you find ways to care for yourself as you adjust to your new role.
