Breathe, Bitch Doula started with a simple idea: to make positive birth and postpartum experiences accessible to all.
Queer people. Trans folks. Single moms. Surrogates. Immigrants. Fat folks. Every race and religious belief. You will never forget how you were treated during your birth experience, and here at Breathe, Bitch Doula we believe feeling safe and supported is a human right—not a luxury.

So how does it all work?
When you sign up for our birth doula services, you are matched with two doulas tailored to your unique goals and needs. You and any birth partners will then attend our Birth 101 class, where you’ll learn all about the road to come. Your two doulas will then work with you in your home to establish your unique birth preferences and postpartum plan. Your doulas will share an on-call schedule to ensure you have 24/7 support during your birth. With this unique model, you get the benefit of having two doulas throughout your pregnancy, plus you can feel confident knowing the doula who will support you during your birth will be fully rested and ready to give 100%—something you can’t be sure of with solo practitioners!
