Since I have been supporting families as a birth and postpartum doula for about eight years now, I have met some great professionals in the field that I would like to recommend. I am a strong believer in taking advantage of all the wonderful care the community of holistic practitioners here in Philadelphia has to offer you through pregnancy and postpartum.
