An opportunity to improve maternal health care outcomes for vulnerable women
Adjusting to new life as a mother of a five week old, Aamina and her doula have a beautiful bond that supports both mother and baby.
We sat down with three Birth for Humankind volunteer doulas. They are all at different stages on their doula journey and in their time with us. But in one short afternoon, they filled the room with so much laughter, wisdom and compassion, that solving world tension with a cup of tea and a doula or three seems entirely possible.
In November last year, we set about recruiting and training a cohort of bicultural doulas so that our team of volunteer doulas reflects the diversity of women we support. One of those women is Faith.
