A doula – a birth assistant – supports a woman and her partner through pregnancy, birth, and into parenthood, easing your concerns and helping you turn confusion into confidence!

Having a baby can be … wonderful, overwhelming, blissful, scary, exciting, frustrating, thrilling, exhausting, exhilarating, and intense – all at the same time! Do you feel like you've stepped through the looking glass and suddenly find yourself confused and unsure, worried and vulnerable?

You are not alone – most parents-to-be feel this way at least some of the time. Wouldn't it be nice to have someone to confide in, someone by your side to put an arm around your shoulder, sort out the myths from the realities, and help you find answers? Someone who knows the scene when it comes to having a baby in Singapore?

We can help. A doula offers you the knowledge and perspective of a trained birth professional, the warm connection of a good friend, and the specific skills to help you and your partner feel confident about having this baby together. By the time of your baby's birth, you and your partner will know your doula well, so you won't feel alone when in hospital with staff you've never met. She is with you throughout your labour and birth, whenever you need her – including at home in early labour, and no shift changes!

A doula supports you as you choose what's right for you, whatever that is. This is your birth … your way. Find out more:
