Birth Doula Support

At Mahina Birth Support, we understand that the experience of bringing new life into the world is as diverse as the families we support.

Advocacy
We are committed to ensuring your voice is heard. As your doula, we'll create an environment where your choices are honored, fostering an environment of communication and collaboration with your healthcare team.

Emotional Support

The mind-body connection is so important during labor. Creating a sense of safety and calmness is crucial, as it enhances your body's ability to generate the necessary hormones for a smooth delivery. As your doula, we specialize in breathing techniques and offer emotional support/processing to alleviate anxiety and provide comfort.

Physical Support

Physical support looks different for every birthing person. As your Doula, we provide evidence-based techniques like massage, targeted touch, and supportive movement throughout your labor and delivery. We also provide your partner with skills and techniques that they will need to support you during your birth in a way that feels both loving and present.

Informational Support

Knowledge is power. As your doula, we are committed to providing you with the non-biased, evidence-based information you need to make informed decisions throughout your pregnancy, birth, and postpartum time.

Kansas City doula supports your emotional birth journey.

“Truly I don’t know how I would have gotten through my birth without Charity. No matter what type of birth experience you are looking for, having a doula there is absolutely invaluable. The nurses aren’t able to stay with you every minute and no matter how supportive your partner is, they aren’t a professional and will often be overwhelmed themselves. I had a fully unmedicated birth which was more intense than anyone could have prepared us for. Charity was able to help me with positions and coping techniques and she also kept my wife calm by telling her that everything happening was completely normal. Charity was also able to advocate for us with the staff and request things I wouldn’t have thought about. The next time I get pregnant Charity will be my first call!”

“I had the pleasure of having Megan as the doula for the birth of my first child and I am so thankful for her support. She was such a calm and reassuring presence in a scary and chaotic time for me. She encouraged me while giving both my husband and I the support we needed. After delivery, my husband told me he was thankful for the extra help so he could focus just on me. After all, this was a new experience for him as well, and I think he felt a little lost until Megan showed up.

She also did little things like give me water between pushes and chapstick which doesn't seem like a lot but it is so helpful especially when I pushed for a while. After delivery is such a blur but Megan's kindness will be with me forever. If you are thinking about hiring a doula you won't be disappointed in hiring Megan!”
