“A doula is like a tour guide for birth. You could get

from A to B by yourself with a map but being with

someone who knows the landscape and speaks the

language can make the experience easier and more
enjoyable.”

• Support in pregnancy – information and birth

preparation

• Continuity of care in labour – advocacy and practical

help

• Safeguarding of the golden hours and early postpartum

period

• Evidence of a better birth – shorter labour, fewer

unwanted interventions, fewer caesareans, and greater

birth satisfaction.
