Birth Coach

A birth coach, often known as a doula, is a trained professional who provides physical, emotional, and informational support to expectant mothers before, during, and after childbirth. Their role is to help create a positive birth experience, offering guidance on pain management techniques, assisting with relaxation, and advocating for the mother’s wishes in a medical setting. Unlike a healthcare provider, a birth coach focuses on the mother's comfort and emotional well-being, helping her navigate the process of labor and delivery, while also offering support to her partner.
