Bereavement support

Bereavement Care

A bereavement doula supports women during any stage of birth.   If you have suffered a miscarriage, gotten a

fatal diagnosis or have been told your baby no longer has a heartbeat, bereavement support may be right for you. 

No one has miscarriage or stillbirth on their birth plan.

   

 

What happens when your birth plan changes?  During these devastating times you can have a compassionate professional who will be there for this birth, provide you with resources, and give you information about what to expect during the process.  Every pregnancy loss is different, but the support of your doula is always guaranteed.  Your doula is on call for you 24/7.  She will provide you with evidence-based information about the choices that you have in each individual situation.  She spends time with you prior to birth to process fears and share what to expect during the birth process that may be different from your original plan.  She will join you face-to-face during your labor (if you have one) and be there for you during the birth process, help you with facilitate communication between you and your care providers/family, helping with final services should you need them and sticking by your side every step of the way.  A  bereavement doula is a trusted professional who is welcomed into a grieving family's space and helps guide them  through loss.

 A bereavement doula is an expert in all things pregnancy loss, and can be

your compass when you feel like you're completely lost.

If you've just discovered that your pregnancy will likely end in miscarriage, stillbirth, or a fatal diagnosis, and have questions about how you can benefit from the support of a bereavement doula, contact us today.

Bereavement support for end of life care, loss of a loved one, NICU parents and continued grieving support is also available.
