World Doula Week is coming up on March 22 and this annual celebration honors the invaluable role of doulas in maternal health care. Doulas are dedicated professionals who provide emotional, physical, and informational support to birthing individuals and their families before, during, and after childbirth. Their presence significantly contributes to positive birth experiences, improved maternal and infant health outcomes, and empowered families.
At Ergobaby, we are proud to join the global community in recognizing and appreciating the vital work of doulas. To commemorate World Doula Week, we have curated a series of insightful blog posts that delve into the world of these maternal health care superheroes. Each post explores different aspects of doula support, from the history and benefits of doula care to personal stories and testimonials from both doulas and the families they've assisted.
Here are multiple blog posts we have prepared as resources to learn more about doulas:
