What is a Doula? Ancient wisdom for modern birth. Having a baby can be such an amazing and empowering experience. An incredibly life changing event. Brings with it personal transformation, changes to your body, to relationships and deep shifts in attitudes. Prepare body, mind a.

Welcome to my web site! I am a midwife-trained doula working in the Regina area since 2004. Was introduced to me while pregnant with our youngest son, and I received my Level 1 BFW training in 2005 in Winnipeg, five months after his birth. In 2010, I received advanced mentor training in Oregon. What initially drew me to BFW was feeling unprepared for unmedicated labour; being told that I would be able to cope with the pain of labour, but not encouraged to build a pain-coping mindset.

I am extremely proud of these young men and women, and their commitment to our community. Thanks for being a beacon of light today. Thank god for these beautiful Black heroes. October 27, 2017 53,958 notes. October 27, 2017 45,251 notes. Manufacturing of paper and cloth.
