Postpartum Doula Services​

If your heart's desire is to cherish the first days & weeks - easing your transition into parenthood.... while receiving nurturing care combined with postpartum wisdom.... I invite you to explore Ecstatic Birth ™ postpartum doula care with me.
The first weeks following birth are a time for recovery & bonding. Babies go through enormous changes adapting to life outside the womb and need plenty of holding & love. For both first time and experienced mothers, being taken care of while caring for their newborn is essential!

Postpartum Doula Care

As a postpartum doula with 31 years experience I've cared for hundreds of newborns and parents. As a parenting educator I focus on providing evidence based research as opposed to opinion. I support couples in finding their own way to parent that best fits their philosophy. For full details read more...

Postpartum Doula Services with Debra Woods, Vancouver BC
"Debra provided great postpartum support when we came home from the hospital. I was struggling with getting established with breastfeeding and she was able to reassure me and help me get on track almost immediately. Debra clearly is a wealth of knowledge and was able to provide sound insight to my many questions. Thank you!"  Katie
