Mission

The mission of Healing Grace Childbirth Services is to facilitate birth through grace to families affected by perinatal loss and to empower women to face any and all birth situations with hope, and dignity. We strive to provide support to families when they need it  the most. Our doulas work with families to provide support in numerous methods via physical, emotional and spiritual means. It is our belief that every woman should be given choices for her labor and delivery and those choices should be supported thereafter.

​Our organization will provide postpartum care and encourage bonding for new mothers/families. Other services will include lactation consulting and advice. It is our deepest desire that every family will have access to support in times of loss and that no one be without the support that families may find themselves lacking. Our doulas provide continual support for entire length of pregnancy or time of grieving. We will provide support, compassion and guidance in every situation and will work with you to help create lasting memories. See the services we offer, here. 

Vision
 Our hope that each family have access to a doula, if they wish to use a doula.  We strive to treat each mother and family member with respect, love and to promote confidence in birth planning. Our doulas will work all parents in any stage of pregnancy, providing information to help their options during pregnancy, labor, birth, and the postpartum period.

The doula will act as an advocate for each mother, acting as a wealth of knowledge, providing resources, information, and encouragement to hold true for  wishes for a birth plan. Our doulas empower mothers and help parents to make informed choices, working  to help each family arrange for the birth experience of their choice.

When birth outcomes do not go as planned, when a family finds themselves dealing with an unexpected or sudden loss, our doulas provide emotional support for the grieving family. We will be with the family every step of the journey and continue to provide support for several months to come. Our bereavement doulas provide education about the various options that families may encounter when saying good bye to their precious child.
