Doula support

Pregnancy and Birth Support

At Conscious Life Doulas we provide non-judgmental, evidence-based support, as well as traditional wisdom of indigenous birthkeepers.

Throughout history, women have been supported by other women in their tribes as they navigated the childbearing year and beyond. So here we are, to be your village.

In our antenatal sessions, we guide you to explore and release any limiting beliefs and patterns that may have been imprinted in your subconscious mind from childhood or external sources. Stories we've heard over the years or birth scenes from movies we seen can influence our perceptions of childbirth. Social conditioning has taught us not to trust ourselves, our own bodies. We invite you on the deep dive, uncovering and understanding where these mind programs originated and we give you the tools to change them.

We will hold space for you and your feelings and we will guide you to tap into your innate wisdom, to connect and listen to your body, deepen the connection between you and your baby.

We encourage women to own their pregnancy and birth by knowing their rights and becoming educated about pregnancy and the birth process, so they make informed decisions that are the best for themselves and their babies.

The birth of your baby is your story to write. You and your baby are the main characters in this story and we are here to to support you all the way. Support you in your choices, to help with your birth plan and preparations, to help you to achieve to give a birth in the way that makes you empowered.

As part of our antenatal support, Dita offers nurturing Rebozo Massages, this massages enhance your sense of connection with your body and your baby, promoting relaxation and emotional well-being, releasing muscle tightness and tension.

Yve shares the magic of Hypnobirthing - a technique that encourages you to harness the power of your mind during birth. Hypnobirthing techniques can help you achieve a state of deep relaxation and focus, promoting a positive birth experience.

We recognize the vital role partners play in the birthing process. We encourage partners to participate in some sessions, equipping them with tools and knowledge on how to support you during labour. Together, we discuss various aspects of the birth process, pain relief options, and the significance of oxytocin flow and movement during labour and much more.

Our antenatal sessions go beyond surface-level preparations; they delve into the depths of your being, unlocking your inner strength, self-trust, and intuition. Embrace this empowering journey with us as you prepare to welcome your precious little one into the world.
