"Do I really need a doula if… (insert your situation here)?"

This is a common question I get as a doula - and in this episode, I’m walking you through the honest, evidence-backed answer.

Because you might have wondered, "do I *really* need a doula if...": 

👉 If I've got a supportive partner…? 

👉 Or if I'm having a home-birth…? 

👉 Or if I'm in the MGP…? 

👉 Or if I've given birth before…? 

👉 Or if my pregnancy is low risk (or high risk!)…?

👉 Or if I don't want strangers in my room...?

I walk through each of the questions I often hear from women who are unsure whether hiring a doula is still worthwhile - and gently unpack each one. 

Together, we explore why having a doula remains one of the most powerful choices you can make for yourself, your baby, and your birth story.

If you’ve ever wondered whether hiring a doula is “worth it,” this episode is a must-listen.

Let’s set the record straight - and get you feeling clear, confident, and supported heading into birth.
