Frequently Asked Questions

  • The Postpartum Doula works with families in the postpartum period; offering support, information, instruction, comfort, and resources as needed. Postpartum Doulas support the parent’s recovery, provide infant care and feeding support, family care and assist with household organization.

  • Doulas and Midwives are distinct care providers, each with a specific scope of practice. A doula focuses on offering emotional, physical, and informational support to birthing parents, ensuring they feel nurtured and empowered throughout their journey. Midwives, on the other hand, are professional healthcare providers trained to deliver medical care during pregnancy, labor, birth, and postpartum. They monitor the health of both the birthing parent and baby, perform medical procedures, and act as primary care providers for low-risk pregnancies. Doulas and midwives work collaboratively, complementing each other to provide comprehensive care.

  • Some extended health plans, benefits and health spending accounts may cover Doulas. You can check with your insurance provider reviewing under the paramedical category for areas that education, TENS machine use or other services could possibly be claimed.

Kind Words from Our Clients

  • "I am so grateful for our doula and that she was apart of our birth journey. She provided the knowledge I needed to ground myself and get into the necessary head space to have a home birth. I had a long labor which unfortunately ended at the hospital due to complications which was very difficult for me as that was completely out of the realm of what I had envisioned. I don't know what I would have done without her keeping me grounded through the experience until the end. I could not imagine our birth journey without her. She went above and beyond."

    KR

  • “These ladies are fantastic. They helped my husband and I every step of the way when we were expecting our latest babe. But also still stay connected with us today sharing perspective, relationship, and resources with us in many areas of life. I feel lucky we chose to hire a Full Circle Doula, honestly.”

    RO

  • “With my first child I was on the fence about getting a doula my whole pregnancy. I ended up deciding against it figuring the nurses would be there to help me. Unfortunately only one nurse was. I knew if I would have had the support the entire time I would have had a different experience. Of course, with my second child I had zero hesitation about getting a doula and I sought one out first trimester. Little did I know that my doula would support me through my ENTIRE pregnancy not just labour. Our prenatal classes were so informative and we learned so much, even though this was our second child.”

    LJ

  • “We learnt a lot in a short time and felt well-supported. Our confidence soared after one session, thank you Full Circle.”
