Welcome to Doula Support by Serenity Birthcare!


It would be my pleasure to serve you, during the most joyful event of your lifetime!

What is a Doula?


  • A Doula supports women and their families so the achieve the birth that they desire.
  • Doulas work in homes, hospitals and birth centers.
  • A Doula provides physical comfort, emotional support and information to families before, during and after childbirth.
  • A Doula does not replace the partner's role in childbirth. She supports the partner to love and encourage the laboring mother.
  • A Doula supports the mother's decision and does not force her own viewpoint.

  • Complimentary Consultation to discuss my services and answer any questions.
  • Get to know each other.
