Why Are You a Doula?

I have always been fascinated by pregnancy and birth; like many other people, I lost my job during the 2020 lock-down and had to rethink my path. I began providing newborn care which quickly evolved into postpartum doula work. I found this work to be incredibly fulfilling, I felt called to the birth space and completed my birth doula certification in January 2021. The empowering birth of my own daughter solidified for me that birth work and reproductive advocacy is my vocation. I am now a nursing student on the path to midwifery, I have intentionally balanced my educational schedule to be compatible with birth work because I believe that combining doula work with my clinical studies allows me to be a well rounded and spiritually nourished professional. My role as birth worker is to meet women and parents where they’re at: without bias, supporting and understanding the profoundly unique experience of pregnancy and birth. I want the mothers and parents who choose to invite me into their sacred space to leave their experience with me feeling loved, empowered, and held. I believe that peace on earth begins with birth, and that the experience of birth matters just as much as the outcomes. Birth workers play a crucial role in the advancement of reproductive justice and help shape the cultural narratives of birth by reminding parents of powerful intuition, innate capability, and bodily autonomy. Your medical team is there to make sure you are safe, your doula is there to make sure that you are seen.

Testimonials

“Mina helped me during my second postpartum period while I was figuring out how to manage

life with two kids. She was easy to talk to, understanding, caring, and gentle with my baby. She

also helped out with household tasks and was great with my oldest daughter. Adding another

baby was a difficult transition for my oldest, and Mina made her feel included and important.

Mina engaged with both girls in a curious and genuine way. She’s absolutely wonderful, and we

still have a great relationship today” - Sara
