A doula is a trained professional who provides support during life’s major transitions. This can include birth, postpartum recovery, or the end of life. Some doulas focus on fertility, miscarriage, adoption, or other significant life changes.

While the work looks different depending on the transition, the common thread is the same: a doula is a guide who helps you feel seen, heard, and supported.

Doulas do not replace doctors, midwives, nurses, or hospice staff. Instead, we provide the support that medical care often cannot cover. That might mean offering reassurance, helping you understand your options, providing hands-on comfort, or simply being present when you need someone steady by your side.

During birth, a doula helps you navigate labor and delivery with confidence. We provide guidance, comfort techniques, and emotional support to help you feel informed and empowered.

After birth, a postpartum doula supports new parents and families as they adjust. This can include assistance with newborn care, feeding guidance, emotional support, and practical help so the family can rest and find a rhythm.

At the end of life, an end-of-life doula provides companionship, emotional support, guidance for families, and comfort measures, helping create a calm, compassionate space during a deeply personal transition.

A doula’s goal is to help you navigate life’s changes with confidence and calm. We offer guidance, comfort, and steady presence, without taking over or replacing the care you already have.

At Life On Purpose Doulas, we are honored to walk beside you through these transformative moments. We provide care that meets you where you are and helps you feel supported every step of the way.
