Lauren Gomola
Lauren is a personal trainer, trauma-informed yoga instructor, wife, dog mom, and doula. She is determined to help empower people from pre-conception to postpartum through mindfulness, education, and support.
Childbirth Tour Guide
What about the partner?
The role of the doula is never to take the place of the partner, but rather to complement and enhance their experience. Many partners decide to play an active role in the birth process. However, some partners prefer to enjoy the delivery without having to stand in as the labor coach. By having a doula as a part of the birth team, the partner is free to do whatever they choose. Doulas encourage the partner to participate as much or as little as they prefer. Having a doula allows them to support their partner emotionally while also enjoying the experience without added pressure.
