Surrendering Waves- Prenatal Wellness and Doula Services

Surrendering Waves- Prenatal Wellness and Doula Services Offering prenatal, birth, and postpartum services. Hello and thanks for stopping by! I'm Monita Gibson and I would love to chat about my doula work!

Nurturing, passion, and knowledge. Those three words are what I wish to give to each and every one of my families. I believe in supporting moms, partners, and children in all aspects during their time of preparation for their birth, all the way through their postpartum period. Each and every pregnancy is different which brings up new conversations and decisions. I will help support you and find the resources you may need. As your doula I will offer a nurturing presence and make the birth of your child as special as possible. I am a believer that laughter and love are very important to the birth process, but I am equally comfortable with the power of silence. I will help provide clear communication with medical staff to help embrace the vision you have for this birth. Every birth has a bit of adversity and I will be there every step of the way.

Our family grew last week 💙 We are all doing so well and transitioning into a family of 5 smoothly. I still cannot believe we have 3 little munchkins!

Uncertainty. That is where we are. We are receiving information from so many different sources. I have found that Evidence Based Birth is a great place for information regarding the current Covid-19 virus.

As of right now, both of our local hospitals and homebirth midwives are welcoming doulas into birthing space with their clients. I personally feel now more than ever doulas roles are important in supporting families in their birth journey. We are able to bring in familiarity. A sense of calm. A space keeper. To reminder staff that this is still a birth, a moment this family will never forget. Let's keep that moment soft and special.

In this time hospitats may be limiting visitors and birth support! I will be advocating for all my families and fellow birth workers to "allow" doulas into their birthing spaces. This template may be helpful to support. Discuss with your provider today.
