     I believe that birth is the most challenging, rewarding moment in a mom's/couple's life and I help to make it a positive event.  I meet with the couple at least 2 to 3 times before the birth to discuss what their plans are, and to discuss any concerns they have and what they would like my role to be during the labor and childbirth.

     I am Doula Montrice and for those couples who choose to have me join them at home.  I can do vital signs on mom, listen to the baby's heartbeat with a doppler, and will do a vaginal exam to determine when to leave for the hospital if the couple wishes.  Guide lines are discussed under which the exam would be done.

     I am a Certified Childbirth Educator and can provide the couple with a private class to help them prepare for the birth.  The couple would receive the same information and movie that they would get with the hospital classes in the comfort of their own home.

      I am a certified Hypnobirthing Practitioner and can provide Hypnobirthing classes if they wish to learn a more calming method of preparing for childbirth. 
 
     When the contract is signed, the couple has 24/7 phone and email access to me for questions, concerns, Dr up-dates, or just to chat.   When labor begins, the couple can choose to have me come to their home or to join them at the hospital.  Once with them, I stay for the entire labor and birth, and a few hours postpartum.  The coach and I work as a team to help the laboring mom. 

With my RN Labor and Delivery background, I can help the couple understand terminology and what different medical options are available.  They can discuss all options that are available to them with their doctor and make the best, safest choices for mom and baby.  I also totally support whatever decisions they make regarding the use of medication or not during their labor and help either way. 

     I meet with the new family soon after the birth to talk about the experience, and to answer any questions they may have.  Admire the baby and to collect the final payment if not already received.
