Contact: Jun-Nicole Matsushita Certified Labor Doula (CBI), MA 319*430*6736 www.BambooBirth.com Bamboo is a vigorous and versatile plant that symbolizes grace, endurance and compromise as it bends but does not easily break. Bamboo survives in the harshest conditions and endures nature’s challenges with resilience and flexibility. Standing tall and green year-round a bamboo forest sways in the wind reminding us of the strength, yielding and adaptability necessary during the powerful process of birth.

Bamboo Birth Services Birth and Postpartum Doula
s Why Use a Doula? A doula provides continuous non-clinical support to a woman and her partner during pregnancy, birth, and the early weeks of parenting. As your doula I will help you prepare for your birth and learn about your birth preferences, whether your goal is to have a natural intervention free birth in a home or hospital setting, a medicated birth, or a planned cesarean section that is family centered. A doula at your side during labor is focused solely on you and your partner to provide emotional support, practical assistance, and a calm, objective presence. During labor I will suggest comfort measures such as position changes, perform light massage, and assist with guided visualizations and breathing. I can make suggestions to help your partner best support you, while allowing them to fully experience the birth as a loving participant. Throughout your pregnancy, birth, and postpartum period I can help you understand basic terminology, procedures and medical practices to further your efforts to make informed decisions. As your doula I am part of a whole team where each member has a special role to play in supporting you for your birth.
