A Full Circle of Services  

Pre-Conception and Fertility

Fertility awareness is important in supporting people in their sexual and reproductive decision - making.
Learning about your menstrual cycle and having a knowledgeable and insightful guide to further your comprehension to body literacy, enriches the connection with your body, understanding your times of fertility and infertility. 

According to research, only 12.7% of women seeking fertility treatment can accurately identify the fertile window. Fertility awareness will help you identify exactly when you're fertile so you can confidently use the best days to conceive.  

Holistic Reproductive Health Practitioner (Justice International College) and certified fertility awareness professional (Association of Fertility Awareness Professionals), Chloe Skerlak provides private, group, online,  in person fertility awareness education for pregnancy avoidance, pregnancy achievement ​and insight into reproductive and overall health. 

Full Circle is excited to host with Chloe the Period Positivity workshop for Mothers and Daughters. 
A fun and educational body literacy workshop. Empower your daughter(s) with the knowledge they need to have a positive relationship with their body and their periods. 

Placenta Education


​ Product containing human placenta has now been reclassified as a 'drug' under the Canadian Food & Drug Act when prepared by a third party representative. A 'third party' being defined as someone other than the person the placenta belongs to.  For this reason, Full Circle Birth Collective is unable to process and prepare placenta products such as placenta encapsulation or tinctures for our clients. 

In lieu of this, Full Circle Birth Collective is now offering Placenta Education Services. 

Expecting individuals registered for placenta education services would receive one on one private instruction on how to properly process and prepare their placenta product in their own home, shortly after the birth of their baby. For ease and simplicity, all required materials would be provided, with exception to a small number of common household items.

 Doula Services for Birth and Postpartum

Labour Birth Doula 
​A Full Circle Birth Collective Labour Doula meets with you during your pregnancy to answer your questions, and help prepare you for your upcoming birth. In labour your doula will join you when you feel like you need extra support. She provides comfort measures, massage, suggests position changes, and supports both you and your partner,
to ensure you have everything you need.

Belly Binding for the Postpartum period

​Bengkung belly binding is a traditional healing practice for postpartum moms from Malaysia. What makes it so amazing is the fact that each time it is wrapped, it will fit your body perfectly, holding you where you need the most support. Our bodies rapidly change after giving birth; this belly bind will adapt with you throughout your entire recovery. The bind is therapeutic and very comforting to use, but does not replace the care of a pysiotherapist or other specialist.

Full Circle Birth Collective also offers handmade Bengkung Belly Binds for purchase and private belly binding sessions.
