Myth 4: All Doulas Are Hippies

About this course

Jess is dedicated to dispelling the common misconception that all doulas conform to a stereotypical "hippie" image. In reality, doulas come from diverse backgrounds and possess a wide range of skills and expertise.

While some doulas may align with certain holistic practices, many others focus on evidence-based care and support tailored to the individual needs of their clients. By debunking this myth, Jess emphasises the importance of understanding the varied roles and approaches of doulas in birth preparations. Incorporating doula tips for birth preferences into your plans ensures a more personalised and supportive birthing experience.

Whether you prefer a more holistic approach or seek evidence-based guidance, there is a doula available to meet your needs and preferences. By embracing the expertise and support of a doula, expectant parents can navigate birth preparations with confidence and assurance, regardless of any preconceived stereotypes.2 mins
