How a Virtual Doula Can Support You During Pregnancy
Many people have heard of doulas supporting labour, but fewer realise how valuable a virtual doula can be during pregnancy.
Pregnancy is when many of the key decisions about birth begin to take shape. Conversations with midwives and doctors, discussions about induction, choices about where to give birth - all of these can influence how your birth unfolds. So why do it alone?

What is a Birthkeeper?
A birthkeeper holds space for the unfolding of birth as a natural, physiological, and spiritual experience. Birthkeepers draw from ancient wisdom, intuition, and practical skills to provide holistic pregnancy and birth support that nurtures the whole person ; mind, body, and spirit, and offer a ‘wise woman’ presence during labour and birth.
Midwife, Doula, Birthkeeper. What’s the difference?
A midwife is a registered medical professional who monitors the wellbeing of women, birthing people and their babies during pregnancy, birth and postpartum. A doula is a non medical support who offers education and advocacy for those usually engaging with the medical system. And a birthkeeper is a non medical, holistic support, they often, but not always work with those choosing freebirth.
