| Melinda Ferguson Birth and Postpartum Doula CD, PCD (DONA) Nurturing the Whole Family in Their Baby Moon |
|
Serving Seattle, North King and South Snohomish Counties I believe families can benefit greatly from the help of a caring, supportive, and knowledgeable person at their side during the enormous life changes that occur in the childbearing year. I provide this with my doula care in birth and postpartum. As your doula it is an honor and a privilege to be present at the birth of your child. It is with great respect that I come to nurture, encourage and assist you in this most extraordinary event. I view birth as a normal and healthy process. My goal as a doula is to help you have a safe and satisfying childbirth as you define it. My role compliments that of the partner in helping him to support the mother and provide information and reassurance about the course of labor. With a doula present, the partner is released of the obligation to be the sole support for the laboring mother, and free to participate at whatever level he is comfortable. The early postpartum time is one of enormous changes physically, emotionally and spiritually. It is also a time of changing relationships between all the members of the family, physical healing and exhaustion and extreme hormonal fluctuation. As postpartum doula I help make this time easier with my knowledge, gentle understanding, and assistance.
