Questions to Ask a Doula

Most doulas offer a complementary meet & greet to allow both parties to get to know each other better to determine if it is the right fit. Feel free to use any of these questions to guide your conversation!

​

Training & Practicalities

  • Could you tell me a little bit about your training? Did you choose to certify? 

  • How many families have you supported?

  • What are your fees? What is included in this fee?

  • What is your cancelation policy?

  • How do you manage things if you have multiple clients birthing at a similar time?

​

Support

  • How would you describe your style/approach to support? 

  • How many visits will we have?

  • How do you include the partner and extended family members?

  • How do you interact with healthcare professionals?

  • Why did you become a doula?

We acknowledge that we live, work, gather, and provide care on the traditional territories of the many First Nations, Métis, and Inuit Peoples whose relationships with these lands extend across generations.

We honour and respect the histories, languages, cultures, knowledge, and enduring presence of Indigenous Peoples and communities.

We offer this land acknowledgement as an expression of gratitude and as part of our ongoing responsibility to listen, learn, build respectful relationships, and support reconciliation.

As a doula community, we also acknowledge and honour the generations of Indigenous people who have held knowledge, provided care, and supported their communities through birth, family and reproductive experiences, loss, death, ceremony, and other significant life transitions.
