5 Love Languages of Pregnancy

February 2, 2020 | birth, doula, husband, pregnancy

Over the course of the month, I have been applying The 5 Love Languages written by Gary Chaplain to pregnancy, childbirth and postpartum. This week, I am covering how you can apply these principles during childbirth.

Testimonial: Chelsea's Birth

Tamara is the absolute best Doula to hire! We were referred to her by a friend who had delivered with her, but I had no idea the extent of love she would graciously share with us on our birth day.

Our little one decided to arrive 4 weeks early. Tamara stayed with us every step of the way. Communicating during early labor and joining us at the hospital in the middle of the night when active labor started.

Childbirth Class Reviews

Have you thought about taking a childbirth class? Wonder if its worth your time and money? Think it will be boring or that you wouldnt learn anything?

Think about taking a class with Stork Helpers. We offer a variety of classes to choose from depending on your needs.

Tamara is a wonderful person and doula! She met with my husband and I twice before our daughter's birth to discuss what to expect and the birth experience we hoped to have. She's a great listener and caring person! She went above and beyond made a birth position handout for us in the event she wasn't able to make it for the birth (due to a scheduled vacation the week before our due date)!

October Childbirth Class

Have you been looking for a Childbirth Class that is fun and informative at the same time? Join us at one of our upcoming 3 Week Classes or faster paced one day class and join in all the fun for yourself!

Tamara has developed a class combining her twenty years of being a Mama with her experience as a doula and childbirth educator.

Baby Fair

Join me at the Baby Fair at Fort Hamilton Hospital. Get a chance to talk to me about how a doula can support you.

Per the Kettering Health Network website "Baby Fairs are free, open-house events where future parents can learn more about successful pregnancy planning, financial planning, what to anticipate during pregnancy, and what to expect once baby arrives."
