Doula rec's in Delco?

I'm looking for recommendations of good doulas that work in Delaware County (I'm delivering at Lankenau). Ideally I'm not looking for someone super "earth-mothery" or overly touchy-feely. :) Just someone who knows their sh** and will be able to coach me through labor, hopefully keep me med-free, and be my advocate with the med staff in the hospital.

TIA!

    I decided to go with Christina Duff at Well Born Baby.

     If you're looking for other recommendations, try the DONA website for a general listing or give the area birth center a call:

    Also, The Family Birth Mark in Media has doula connections:

    best of luck!

    Congrats on your pregnancy and searching for a doula!  They (we) can really make a difference in the birth experience - I am speaking from my own experience of having one. 

    I am a newer doula, just got a website going - and I found your post actually because I searched my business name, "Delco Doula" to see if it popped up on google and got here where I recently became a member to jump into pregnancy and birth discussions with some local moms and moms to be!  haha! So funny :) I was trained through Birth Arts International, and have a few births under my belt in addition to my own two. Here's my info:
