Golden Thread Doulas

We are a partnership of three like-minded birth doulas, who are passionate about bringing community back to birth.

In coming together as one, we provide a continual and unwavering stream of support for women as they navigate birth and motherhood.

Authentic connection is so important!!

With our group support, you can absolutely choose which doula is first on-call for your birth, if you have a preference! While still getting the benefit of extended birth support from the other doulas, if needed.

Prenatally, you also get time with all 3 doulas, who each bring their unique strengths and wisdom in helping you prepare for birth.

Part of our support package also includes one postpartum visit, attended by the doula first at your birth.

We believe equally valuing, and prioritizing both Connection and Community offers our clients well rounded support.

THE TRANSFORMATION ✨✨✨✨
There are no words for this!
Please feel free to share your story below!✨✨✨✨

You stretched

You opened, body and soul.

You worked hard

And you persevered when it got even harder.

You climbed the mountain, touched the heavens, and came back with your baby.

FINALLY, they are on your chest, you smell their head and touch their moist skin.

You did it!

And then you remember, or maybe someone, or the cramps in your womb, remind you that birth isn't over yet!

(Yes, more contractions 🤪)

The placenta, the second mother, who nourished your baby for all those months has yet to be born.

This precious time between birth of your baby and birth of their placenta can be anywhere from 5 minutes to over an hour.

The cord is pulsing up to 30% of baby's into their body as they adjust to life earth side.

Hormones are carefully supporting these biological functions, and that bonding you're experiencing as you explore your baby and they look for your breast.

This is an important, sensitive, and often least considered part of birth.

When making a plan for your birth desires, location, and support team, don't forget to give careful thought to what you want your immediate postpartum time, and the precious golden hour, to look like.

A doula may be a great addition to your support team to help provide education around this time, hold space, and help advocate for your immediate postpartum wishes when the birth day arrives.

Golden Thread Doulas offers birth support built on collaborative wisdom, deep connection, and intentional community.

Announcing February's Golden Thread Workshop & Guest Facilitator ➡️ !

We just love💛 Bri and we are thrilled to have her join us as our first ever guest facilitator for our client workshops!

Bri will join us Golden Thread Doulas, Golden Thread clients, and Imprint Birth clients, to share her wealth of knowledge as a doula, student midwife, and babywearing mom of 4.

Babywearing for the first time, or trying out new carriers/wraps (there are soo many out there now), can sometimes feel overwhelming and intimidating.

Learning different features, tips and tricks, and having help putting them on with or without your baby can be so valuable in feeling more comfortable and confident wearing your baby.

It can also be helpful in deciding which carrier or wrap may be best for you before investing.

Our monthly workshops rotate topics and are currently exclusive to Golden Thread clients as part of their birth support package.

also offers one on one babywearing consultation services! Check out her website to learn more.

Thanks for joining us, Bri! ✨️

Birth is meant to be free - we like to say you make the rules.
Not a Rule Breaker, it doesnt matter because IT’S YOUR BIRTH!
✨RULE #1
You have to accept all interventions or suggestions that are offered.
BREAK IT
You do not have to say yes to anything offered. You can say NO to it all! It’s your body, your birth, your choice.
✨RULE #2
You need to have an induction at 40 weeks.
BREAK IT
There is a reason it is called an estimated due date. Each woman has a different gestation of pregnancy, potentially ranging from 37-42 weeks.
✨RULE #3
You need to be in bed during labor, push on your back and push when told to start pushing.
BREAK IT
Movement in labor is key to shift your baby down into optimal positioning. Push when you feel you have labored down, baby is stationed low enough, and/or you feel your body naturally pushing (fetal ejection reflex). You can push in whatever position feels intuitive and good to you.
✨RULE #4
There is a time clock going when labor begins. Your birth needs to keep progressing at a definitive rate.
BREAK IT
If you are at a hospital the timeline is for their benefit - NOT yours. Cervical checks and other monitoring helps hospital staff feel in control. Birth is not meant to be controlled, timed, or watched, there is not a reason your birth is too slow or too fast. Your body knows exactly what it needs to do to allow you to birth your baby.
✨RULE #5
Your baby needs to be taken to a warmer to be checked, assessed, and monitored after birth.
BREAK IT
Your baby does not need to be taken away from you to be weighed or checked. Everything can be done with baby skin to skin on their momma. Baby will actually regulate better and adapt to their new environment by being close to or touching you at all times, not seperated.

At Golden Thread Doulas, we put a lot of intention behind everything we created and spent a lot of time crafting our package.
We know that each of our clients has a unique journey and honor that. We believe that each piece of our package is incredibly valuble and although you may not have a need for it, you would be suprised what amazing knowledge, wisdon or community you will gain from it.
With that being said, our package is a set price. We offer lots of ways to adjust the package to fit your schedule, honor your time and experience all we have to offer. One of the ways this can look is having the option for virtual prenatals or by accessing our digital resources to view our workshop materials!
If you have questions about any of this or payment options please don’t hesitate to reach out to us at hello@goldenthreaddoulas.com

We always tell our clients that birth is Transformational!
Each woman’s journey is unique and we don’t always understand it, we are not supposed to. As you integrate your birth for the rest of your life, pieces of the transformation may all of sudden click.
The woman who you are, whether it be maiden or mother, is not left behind but rather revealed as a new, clearer version of herself.
As you navigate pregnancy, labor, birth and postpartum let go of any expectations and allow this new you to emerge, smile with gratitude at her and embrace her.✨

01/01/2026
