What is the postpartum doulas goal? Will she push a particular parenting approach?
The postpartum doula’s ultimate goal is to work herself out of a job. Your doula will work to build your skill and comfort as a new parent, until you are so at ease that you no longer need her support. Doulas don’t push one particular parenting method over another, and we won’t judge your choices. At Birth Kalamazoo, we have become really good listeners who can help new moms and dads sort through their feelings and find resources to support whatever approach is best for them.
