How Does it Feel to Have a Doula?
Choosing a doula is a lot like dating: you’ll just *know*
Finding the one isn’t always easy. But when you meet the right doula, you just know! It’s all about chemistry. Our priority is that each of our clients match with the right doula for them. This means connecting you with a doula who:
- is available for your due date and doesn’t have any vacations planned around that date
- has the qualifications you’re looking for. This might be a language request, an approach or just a personality type
- is a great fit for your family. Like we said, it’s got to *feel right*!
You can check our doula bios and our about us pages to get a better understanding of our backgrounds and personalities.
If you’re wondering what makes our team so special check out what some of the families we’ve had the honour to work with have had to say about our doula services!
“Instead of lecturing us or instructing us on how to do things the “right way,” Megan asked us questions and prompted us gently to think through things for ourselves. She was flexible and generous with her time. “
“I had the pleasure of working with Valerie, who truly is a legend and a very pragmatic Doula. She made my bf and I feel super at ease and, in the end, we felt like we didn’t just have a doula accompanying us into parenthood, but that we had made a new friend.“
“Kim was awesome! She made what could have been a very stressful time a very joyful one. My husband was blown away by how happy our baby was and was much more at ease with him afterwards.”
“This was the best decision! The post-partum support with Paige has been essential to our well-being as a family. I’m sincere when I say that we could not have done it without the Bump and Glow team.“
“I was privileged to have Catalina as my night doula for about two months. She was organized, punctual, clean, she had such a pleasant energy and we got along really well. Those were the only nights I got to rest and reboot, without any worry. She was great with my newborn, she knew exactly what to do. “
“We had a flawless experience with Bump and Glow and specifically our doula, Magali. She was incredibly professional and considerate. She ensured we felt equipped going into labour and was able to answer all of our questions. When labour came she happily showed up and instinctively fit into the situation- the entire time she was right where we needed her without being asked. “
“I can’t say enough good things about our experience with Bump and Glow, and our incredible doula Nancy. We took the post partum package and it was a lifesaver. Would 100% recommend hiring a doula if you can, you will not regret it.“
“We consulted with Megan during what was a very challenging pregnancy. Her time and expertise were just what we needed to help us get through the hardest time in our lives. The care and passion Megan put into helping us, warmed our hearts and helped us make more educated decisions about our prenatal care.“
