Doulas can be a wonderful asset to your birth experience, and may help improve outcomes. Doulas are non-medical providers who work to provide physical and psycho-social care for you. More information about doulas can be found at Doulas of BC.

Doulas are a private-pay service. If you or your partner/newborn have Indigenous background, you may be eligible for funding to support a doula at your birth and/or postpartum. Please find more information here.

Looking for a doula? Dancing Star Birth Services offers Doula services. Feel free to ask your midwife/administrators for additional doula information.
