SWEET PEACE DOULA

SWEET PEACE DOULA

hey there bestie,

I’m Elisa, a certified Birth doula.

I am the heart behind Sweet Peace Doula. Birth work is my passion and I’ve had the privilege of walking alongside expecting families for 10-ish Years! Witnessing the many beautiful ways babies can be born, either in the hospital or at home.

When not on-call or chatting with someone about birth. I am kept busy wrangling my two boys as a full-time mom. They light up my life and have shaped my doula care immensely.

Besides birth, I love a good artisan coffee shop latte with oat milk, theatre shows in Vancouver, sharp winged eyeliner, and anything the colour lavender (shocking, I know).

I began this work just shy of my 19th birthday; my first birth rocked my world for the better. Since then, I’ve studied midwifery in Hawaii and helped deliver babies in the Philippines; perhaps walking with you will be my next unforgettable adventure.

SWEET PEACE DOULA

  • Your personal guide throughout pregnancy, providing access to evidence-based information and emotional support. Offering coping techniques and skills during birth that provide non-medical forms of pain relief. Followed up by postpartum debrief, along with access to text and call support for all the tips and tricks to manage those early newborn days.

    Doula’s focus is on your emotional and mental well-being while offering practical support. Certified doula’s are required to partake in an in person workshop, modules & assignments that end with a final exam.

  • A midwife is a licensed medical professional who is responsible for the medical care of the parent and baby. For example, monitoring your pregnancy, performing vital checks, assisting in catching baby and providing regular baby and parent check-ups postpartum.

    Midwives are highly trained individuals who have worked hard to obtain their status. They can provide perscriptions, make diagnostic assesments and perform emergency procedures that save lives. Think of a Dr who’s specailtiy is all things pregnancy, birth and postpartum with an emphasis on a holistic approach.

    Midwives therefore offer the opportuniy for parents to birth at home, as they bring life saving equipment and provide educated, safe care.

GOODBYE GOOGLE.

  • The most common time people tend to reach out is towards the end of the first trimester. Even if you aren’t sure, booking a consultation gets your foot in the door. There are always those who think ahead and end up booking far in advance. Because of this, the sooner you hire Sweet Peace Doula, the better, as spots fill fast.

    Within my doula practice, I take on a limited client load per month. This ensures that I am able to offer you my very best while still showing up for my own family as I mother two small humans.

    1. If you are considering midwifery care NOW is the time to reach out. Midwives here in BC are overloaded and often spots fill fast. Midwifery care is covered by MSP and is a great option if you don’t have a family Dr.

    2. Yes, you can have both a midwife and a doula! We make a great birth team, well-rounded. So next, once the buzz has settled and you’ve told your mom, call me!

    3. Add “doula package” as a gift option on your registry. After all, you’ve already added the top-rated stroller; you and your partner deserve the same amount of attention to detail as you are giving baby. Through quality care, guidance, and education.
