Why do I need a
Doula?
Doulas are for everyone! From home births to elective caesareans and everything in between, a Doula respects your choice and will walk the path with you.
A Doula’s time is dedicated to you… you can decide when you need it. A prenatal and birthing Doula can be engaged at any time during pregnancy. A post-natal Doula can be engaged before or after delivery.
A Doula will support your birth, be it at home with your home birthing specialist, or at hospital with your medical team.
Although Australia does not currently have a governing body or accreditation process for Doulas, high quality training is offered through many Doula training academies. Search the Doula Directory and review profiles for more information on individual Doulas’ training and experience.
Doulas and midwives are complementary members of your birthing team. A trained Doula physically and practically supports all aspects of your wellbeing, and can contribute to the needs of your home and family. A midwife is a medically trained healthcare provider focusing on pregnancy, labour and birth.

Melinda McKeown
Doula
“Tracy has such a beautiful calmness and confidence that straight away made me feel comfortable and safe to be vulnerable, ... talk about any fears and ask questions… As I went into labour, Tracy arrived at my place right away and supported us until it was time to birth our son. Her strong encouraging words, guiding and reassuring my partner on keeping me in a beautiful oxytocin state, and moving us into different positions to support baby’s journey down led to a dream birth of no interventions.”Show Less

“From our first meeting I knew Justine was the right fit for us. She straight away made me feel calm ... and safe ahead of my birth. We used her birth and post natal doula service and highly recommended her for both. She was the perfect support during pregnancy providing a calm space for me to talk about my feelings and expectations ahead of the birth. The lovely massages helped a lot too! During my birth she was there to provide support for me but also my partner.”Show Less

“In a period where I, like many parents of newborn babies, felt totally overwhelmed and exhausted, Sami was a real ... pillar of support. Having her on my team was without a doubt the best investment I could have made in my emotional and physical postpartum well-being.Each week, like some sort of Mary Poppins character, she'd pull exactly what I needed from her magical basket of supplies - whether it was a foot soak, a herbal tea or a baby carrier to soothe our little one while I napped. ”Show Less
