Hi
I am in the Twin Cities area and am looking for a doula, preferably one that does birth and postpartum work. I will be attending the Childbirth Collective's next introductory meeting, and have researched on their site and on Dona International, but I'd like a more personal recommendation. Any thoughts?
Thanx!
Re: Looking for a Doula Recommendation
Are you closer to Minneapolis or St. Paul?
We picked our doula through the St. Paul Childbirth Collective - we interviewed three of the doulas we met at different Parent Topic Nights and ended up picking Dawn Heinen. We haven't delivered yet but have been really happy with our choice so far. But honestly, I feel like we couldn't have gone wrong with any of the doulas we interviewed.
Go to a few of the Parent Topic Nights and you'll get a good idea of what their personalities are like and who might work well with you. Pick a few to interview and trust your gut.
Good luck!
