For more than 17 years, we've been helping new families in Southwest Michigan. It's not just a job for us, it's a calling. Our birth doulas understand the birth process, and we know how important a positive birth experience is for new parents. We also understand newborns, with all of their funny little quirks and big — sometimes loud — needs. Our postpartum doulas are available to answer your 532 questions and help you have a great settling-in time with your new baby (think amazing meals, a trained and nonjudgemental ear to process these big changes, education and tips for everyone, entertainment for big brothers and sisters, and a little extra sleep for the whole family after those rough nights). Everything is customized, because your situation is uniquely yours.
We'd love to help you get off to a great start.
Know what to expect.
Are you the type of person who likes to know all of your options? Does information make you feel more at ease? Our natural birth and breastfeeding classes might be good match for you. The Birth Kalamazoo childbirth class focuses on unmedicated birth, but we also help you prepare for those unexpected times when you might decide on medication or need a cesarean for you and your baby to stay healthy. Our students tell us they come out the other side of our class feeling centered, excited and thoroughly prepared for a positive, informed birth. Explore our classes
Get support for your birth.
Your birth matters. We know it's not just another day in your life, it's the beginning of parenting this baby (or these babies). Our doulas care about your birth as much as you do. We'll work to make sure that you feel supported, that you and your partner have ideas and information, and that your voice is heard. And your doula can help you stack your deck for the best chance at the birth you want. You don't have to go this journey alone, we're here for you. Learn about birth doulas
More baby bliss. Less postpartum stress.
Too many new families struggle through the early weeks and months after a new baby arrives. Whether it's your first baby or your fifth, a single little one, twins or triplets, our postpartum doulas help the whole family settle in. It's about the babies, yes, but it's especially about the new parents. Our postpartum doulas will nurture you and help you ease into this new stage of life. Experienced parents tell us all the time that they wish they could go back in time and hire a postpartum doula. You have the opportunity to set that ball in motion from the start.
