Come find out about birth assistants (also called, "doulas") and the benefits parents receive under a doula's care.
Studies have shown that having a doula as part of the birth team decreases the overall cesarean rate by 50%, the length of labor by 25%, and the request for an epidural by 60% according to Klaus, M., Kennell, J., Klaus, P. Mothering the Mother.
