The hardest part of becoming a parent is loss. We all experience loss sometime in our lives but loosing a child is the unimaginable. No matter what stage the emotions you are feeling are real. Sometimes you need that little extra support. I can create a special package to help with transiting back into life. I have put together resources and information available just by request as well as doula services to fit what you might need.
Training in miscarriage, abortion, still birth and SIDS.
Certified Infant and Pregnancy Loss with Doula Canada. I have attended class with Jessica Austin birthtakesavillage on Miscarriage and abortion for doulas. My resource package is be available to everyone at no cost. Please contact me for more details.
Cost of my services is a sliding scale from $300.00 (unless covered by fund), each person will have a different experience so I work with my clients to create something that works for their unique situation. With all other services I offer, 10% goes directly into a fund. This fund is used to cover the costs for family’s expecting loss and needing a Loss Doula. People can also donate any amount towards this program.
Donations towards this service are greatly appreciated and allow me to offer more services to those who need them the most. Interested in donating please email me at elderflowerdoula@gmail.com or send a e-transfer.
