The latest addition to our Nest, Colette is our amazing Postpartum Doula. Find out a little bit more about her here: Let’s start out with some fun info about me:
A little bit about me I was born and raised in Kamloops, B.C. I am married to a wonderful man and together, we have six amazing children. In 2013, we relocated to Port Moody, B.C. My passion for pregnancy, birth, and postpartum I first became passionate about birth my first born was delivered in the hospital. I feel my labor was mismanaged and that I did not have a voice to use while I delivered my baby into the world. After the birth and the recovery, I started to research my rights and resources so that this would never happen to me again. On my journey, I found a wonderful community of doulas, midwives, birth advocates, lactation support, and an amazing amount of knowledge. My next three births were amazing and pleasantly memorable. In 2012, after a frustrating hunt for my own list of birth items, I started a company called Birth Essentials. It was my way to help women have access to affordable birth supplies in our communities. I have helped family and friends on their journey since then and feel I have a skill set that could help families feel more comfortable during this very exciting time. Some interesting skills and experience
My goal as a postpartum doula The postpartum period is often referred to as the fourth trimester. Pregnancy and birth is a monumental event for the human body to experience. This fourth trimester is a time for the body to recover, establish feeding, and for family to experience bonding. My goal as a postpartum doula is to support the family during this time in any way they need me to.
