"Supporting safe and healthy birthing practices" 
 
I speak fluent English and Russian
 
Я говорю по-русски!
 
 
Each birth is a unique journey.  With caring support, women are empowered to birth their babies forth naturally and with great joy, joining the numberless generations of ancestor women in the dance of life. It is a priviledge to actively help the mother, the baby, and the extended family in making the birthing transition.
 

  Why birth with a doula? 
Women supported by a doula during labor demonstrate:

50% reduction of cesarean rate
25% shorter labor
60% reduction in epidural use
30% reduction in analgesia use
40% reduction in forceps delivery
