Doulas offer a calm presence as well as comfort techniques like the birthing ball, massage, aromatherapy and meditation, just to name a few.

Researchers have found that birth occurring in the presence of a Doula result in a reduction of the following birth-related medical interventions:
- Cesarean sections, by 50%
- Pitocin (inducing drug) use, by 40%
- pain medication, by 30%
- forceps use, by 40%
Furthermore, Doula-assisted births have been found to decrease overall labor time by 25%, and expecting mothers who enlist the services of a Doula are 60% less likely to request an epidural.
Hospitals have protocols they must follow, and often there is a low nurse-to-patient ratio, with more than one woman laboring at a given time. Plus, shift changes can occur at inopportune times. Hiring a Doula to remain at your side throughout your labor and delivery ensures that you will get the continual care and attention you and your family need and deserve.
