No one can ever prepare you for the loss of a baby, but your Doula is here to hold your hand and guide you through the darkest hours of your Miscarriage or Stillbirth at home or in the hospital.
Grief & Loss Doulas have been through loss themselves and have chosen to assist other mothers and their families facing the same journey. The loss of a baby can happen at any time and regardless of how many weeks gestation your baby has reached, the intensity & overwhelming emotions need deep support.
Your Doula will support you through the journey assisting you to meet each enormous decision ahead with calm, clear options to make sure you are able to grieve and process moving forward without regret.
They will also make sure you have access to resources, counselling & ceremonial support as required, which allows you to understand the grief process and how to meet it.
She will also provide information and options for families
to support you in your process if they don't know how.
