Your Doula Team 

Sherri and Chris work as a team to bring you the best pregnancy and birth support possible.  In working as a team, you will receive many benefits that you would not get working with just one doula.  You have the opportunity to experience pregnancy and birth support unlike any other doula service in the CNY area.   ​​ ​

Knowledgable & Experienced

Sherri and Chris bring over 20 years of combined doula experience to your birth team!  You benefit from the knowledge and experience that 2 doulas have received attending hundreds of hours of trainings on various birth related topics and thousands of hours attending many different types of births including hospital and home births, vaginal, cesarean and VBACS, unmedicated and medicated and everything in between. 

Smart

Why a doula team?  Because two heads are better than one!  The benefit of having a doula team at your birth would be twice the support, twice the knowledge, twice the experience and twice the energy!  ​

Reliable

​Doulas who work independently have a back up doula they may call upon if sick, attending a family emergency or attending another birth.  You have the benefit of knowing exactly who will be attending your birth...no last minute backups...just the 2 doulas you have come to know and trust throughout your pregnancy.

Refreshed 

Because you have hired two doulas you will always have a fresh, rested doula with new ideas and techniques to bring to your labor and birth.  When one doula is with you the other doula is always available to give suggestions and support and to provide back up to the doula on call. ​​

More about Sherri:
