Certified birth doula Shauna Davis of Woodstock, IL supports pregnant moms and families as they prepare to give birth at home, hospital or birth center setting in Northern Illinois or Southern Wisconsin.

SUPPORT DURING

PREGNANCY

Upon hiring me as your birth doula, you will have immediate, full access to me by phone and text. You’ll also receive access to my extensive perinatal resources (including handouts) and personalized recommendations for local service providers.

We will have three scheduled in-person sessions during your pregnancy, around 24, 31, and 35 weeks of pregnancy.

During these visits, we’ll walk through prenatal exercises you can begin right away, including those you can practice using your birth ball—every client receives one as a gift. We’ll also explore relaxation, breathing, and comfort techniques, and rehearse labor positions using the peanut ball and CUB positioner, tools that I bring to every birth.

At your 24-week prenatal session, we’ll begin creating your customized birth intentions together and finalize this document by 35 weeks. You can then share this document with your provider.

You will also get access to my private Facebook group for current and past clients to have community, ask questions and share experiences pertaining to the pregnancy, birth and postpartum journey.

SUPPORT DURING

LABOR & BIRTH

Beginning at 36 weeks (or earlier for twins or clients with a history of preterm birth), I provide 24/7 on-call support to ensure you feel fully supported as your guess date (estimated due date) approaches.

I will stay in regular contact to check in on how you're feeling—physically, emotionally, and mentally—so you’re never navigating this final stretch alone.

Also beginning at 36 weeks, I will send you a daily illustrated birth affirmation via text (created by Mama Natural).

We’ll stay in close communication as early labor begins. Together, we’ll continually assess how you’re feeling—both physically and emotionally—and determine the right time for me to join you at home as you continue through your labor. This may be earlier in labor or as you transition into active labor, depending on your unique needs.

After your baby is born, I will remain with you, your birth partner, and your new baby until you feel fully settled, including offering support with your baby’s first feeding.

Certified birth doula Shauna Davis of Woodstock, IL supports moms and families as they navigate immediate postpartum following giving birth at home, hospital or birth center settings.

One scheduled postpartum visit at your home, typically between days 5–7 is included. During this visit, we’ll review your labor and birth experience, discuss newborn care, and address any feeding questions or concerns you may have.

During the first six weeks following your birth, I will always provided any resources or referrals that may be requested, as well as unlimited phone, text and email support.

I also love when clients choose to stay in touch and share updates as their babies grow and reach new milestones—rolling over, sitting up, crawling, walking, and more!
