• Emotional, physical and educational support
• Help to access community resources

• Education on what to expect during pregnancy, labor and delivery
• Help to schedule and get ready for prenatal visits
• ​Support during labor and delivery
• Implement Trauma-Informed Care

*A doula does not take the place of your OB/Gyn.
