About ParentLink Labour Support

Why choose a ParentLink doula?

"I'm thinking of hiring a labour supporter (doula), but why should I choose ParentLink?" Top Ten reasons to choose a ParentLink doula!
When it comes to hiring a labour supporter (doula), the most important thing is that you feel comfortable with the doula you choose. This is an incredibly special time in your life, and you should feel a rapport with anyone you choose to share that experience.

Top 10 Reasons to Choose a ParentLink Doula
 
  1. The most experienced professionally trained doulas in Singapore; we have specialized certification in doula skills because doula work is a unique profession (separate from midwifery! Read "is a doula a midwife?").

  2. This is your birth, your way; you get total support for your choices, whatever they are, and you don't feel pressured to follow anyone elses agenda.

  3. The biggest team of doulas in Singapore, which means doulas are available year-round, and each doula always has back-up; having a large team also means you have a wide pool of support.

  4. Support for partners as well as women: you are both becoming parents, birth isn't just "a woman having a baby" so your classes and support are geared for both of you.

  5. Warm working relationships with the staff in local hospitals; during your birth you'll feel those around you are pulling together as a team.

  6. Experience as expatriates settling in a new country; if you're an expat, you may love your second home in Singapore, yet feel far from your "other" home at a special time such as the birth of your child. We know what that's like!

  7. Deep roots in Singapore: if you're a local, you will appreciate the ease of support from long-time residents who are familiar with traditional customs, newer multicultural practices, and everything in between.

  8. The longest track-record; ParentLink was the first organization in Asia to offer parents professional doula support, since 1997.

  9. A trail-blazing history bringing you new choices: through ParentLink's work you now have access to the first labour pool in a private Singapore hospital, you enjoy the benefits of clear hospital policies accommodating doula care, and at one hospital in Singapore you'll be charged less if you're accompanied by a doula!

  10. The recommendation of hundreds of families we've accompanied as they brought their babies into the world. (Many of those families showed their confidence by asking us back for the births of those babies' younger brothers and sisters!)

We would love to meet you and to talk over your questions and concerns. Come to one of our free coffee mornings , Or, give us a call for a chat (call Tania at +65 9671-8428) or email us.
