DOULA
What is a Doula?
A Doula is not a midwife.
She is not authorized to establish diagnoses or to carry out medical procedures.
A Doula is a person who provides emotional, physical and informational support to every woman from early adolescence through menopause. Our services aim to improve the overall reproductive health experience, contributing to healthier outcomes for women. She is committed to confidentiality.
Role of the Doula
In each of our programs focused on women reproductive health, we recognize the critical importance of caring and personalized support at every stage of a woman's health journey. That is why we actively integrate the essential role of doulas into all of our initiatives, as we firmly believe that every woman deserves ongoing and caring support, regardless of her age or stage of life.
Doulas, with their expertise and compassion, play a fundamental role in providing practical advice, emotional support and valuable information to help women navigate with confidence and serenity through the challenges and transitions of reproductive health.
Testimonials
Fatima SOW
“The experience of being accompanied by a Doula profoundly transformed my pregnancy and the arrival of my child. In 2023, I was fortunate to have Fatima by my side, guiding my perinatal journey with empathy and understanding. Her reassuring presence and constant support created a space where my concerns and choices were respected. She helped me prepare for birth, informed me of the options available and was a true source of encouragement. During labor, her calming presence was invaluable. She collaborated harmoniously with the medical team, creating an atmosphere of harmony and trust. Her emotional support allowed me to live the experience in a positive way, strengthening the bond with my partner. Beyond the birth, she continued to offer postnatal support, sharing useful resources and facilitating the transition to parenthood. Having a Doula like Fatima was more than just support, she was a precious presence that enriched my journey to motherhood. I am grateful for this experience that will remain etched in my memory.
Dieynaba K
The presence of my doula, Fatima, was crucial during my complex pregnancy. She provided valuable support, helping me navigate the ups and downs with understanding and compassion, even when my relationship with my partner was being tested. Her presence made all the difference, bringing extra warmth and understanding during this intense period.
Halimatou Barry
“This is the first time I have been assisted by a doula. Honestly, I think it is a very good thing because it allowed me to understand a lot of things during my pregnancy. It just allowed me to be ready on the day of delivery. I liked the attention that Fatima gives to pregnant women and the advice because it was beneficial. Thank you again for the help and assistance.”
