Doula Support

Your Trusted Support System for Women’s Health and Birth.

Get The Support Of A Doula

Are you looking for continuous, non-medical assistance for you and your partner during labor? A doula is a woman who has been trained to provide just that kind of support.
At Breath of Life, your doula becomes part of the birth team. Our midwives will work hand-in-hand with her to provide you and your partner with the best care and comfort during labor.
*All fees and contracts for doula services are arranged directly between the client and the doula.*

How Can A Doula Help?

A doula’s skills include providing support through:

Massage
Encouragement
Emotional support
Position suggestions
Assistance getting in and out of the tub
Ideas for how dad can support you
Breaks for Dad to eat, sleep or contact family.

Choosing A Doula

While there are many doulas to choose from in the Tampa Bay area, we are proud to offer a list of doulas who offer seamless support as an extension of our midwifery team.

These doulas have completed training at the birth center to become more familiar with — and practice with — the labor tools that we have available at the birth center. We know the power and the value of having a doula present at your birth to ensure you receive the best care every step of the way. We make it easy to add a doula to your care team.

Breath of Life Doula Team and Certified Doulas are independent contractors and offer individual contracts. The doulas are not employees of the birth center, nor are their services covered by any fees that are paid directly to the birth center. All fees and contracts for doula services are arranged directly between the client and the doula—BOL does not pay for Doula services.
