Doula Services - Michelle

Service Description

I am a mother of two hilarious humans (they come by it honestly), and I live with them and my partner in East Vancouver. I love the colour and character of our neighbourhood and it brings me so much joy to connect with the people who live here. My doula style is warm, educational, and lighthearted. I bring a good mix of information, resources, care, and connection. I love diving into research on birth, listening to podcasts, and providing evidence-based education to my clients. I also believe that birth is a beautiful, powerful, and natural process. During birth, I offer emotional and physical support, I look for the little things that need to be done, and I make sure that your partner feels supported and nourished as well so that they can be your first source of support. My favourite post-birth meal is a nice bowl of soup! No matter what each family prefers, I am passionate about providing holistic support prenatally, through birth, and into postpartum. As well as a birth doula, I am also a birth photographer. As part of my birth package, I am thrilled to be offering between 4-6 professional photos from the first hour postpartum. (great to use as an announcement photo!). I am looking forward to hearing your story.

Cancellation Policy

Classes must have sufficient registration to run. Rarely, we need to cancel a class due to lack of registration. If that should happen, we will find another class for you, schedule a private class, or return your full registration, as you prefer. Full payment for classes should be received within one month of the class, to ensure your registration. Should you need to cancel for medical reasons anytime prior to the start of class, you can request to switch your class to a one on one online session. If you have given birth before the start of the class, a refund will be given minus a $100 non-refundable deposit. Please give us as much notice as possible so we can fill the spot. For all other cancellation reasons, up to 3 weeks before the class start date, a 50% refund will be issued. No refunds are available 3 weeks before the class starts and for the duration of the class. If you need to miss a single class, you can ask your mentor if you can come early or stay late to help set-up or clean-up during another time and get the low-down on what you missed. Thank you for joining our prenatal class with Dancing Star Birth.
