Little Bird Doula Care

Pregnancy, labour, birth and the post-partum months to follow are magical moments for a woman and her family. Many feel that they are able to soak up those special experiences even more when they include the services of a doula as part of their care plan. A doula is a specially-trained support person that guides women physically and emotionally on their journey into motherhood; they are not responsible for medical care, decision making or delivery of the baby.

Located in Fort St. James is Little Bird Doula Care, a hands-on informational, emotional and physical support service for pregnant women through all stages of the child-bearing process. Brooke Eschuk is the pre-natal and post-natal expert ready to provide families with nurturing care and informative techniques. She is certifying with Doulas of North America (DONA), a worldwide recognized and accredited organization. Brooke is also trained in numerous workshops including breastfeeding relationships and more! Her education repertoire is always ongoing, with the goal of offering child birth education in 2021.

In addition to physical and emotional support, some of the support that Little Bird Doula Care is providing evidence-based guidance in researching and providing clients with information to make the best decisions for their family. Brooke is an accredited La Leche League leader and offers mother-to-mother, non-judgemental support with breastfeeding or bottle-feeding. She is knowledgeable of active labour and birth positioning, breathing and pain management techniques and so much more!

Women are powerful beings capable of riding the waves of their instinctive birthing experience. Little Bird Doula Care advocates the innate strength within women, encouraging mamas to take charge of their own labour and delivery process. The company abides by, and is sensitive to the fact that, a woman’s partner may need support through birth as well, and will advocate for partners as well throughout pregnancy, labour, birth and early-postpartum. The doula will not take the place of a mother’s partner, rather, she will offer guidance in order to best nurture mother and baby. Brooke works together with families to ensure the birthing mother is nurtured and cared for at all times.
