The Co-Doula Model of Care
Two Doulas, One Nurtured Experience
At The Nurturing Company, we believe families deserve support that is both compassionate and sustainable. That’s why we embrace the co-doula model, a team approach where two doulas walk alongside you throughout pregnancy, birth, and postpartum.
This model ensures you receive continuous, personalized care while also maintaining a healthy balance for your doulas, allowing us to be fully present for you every step of the way.
Benefits for Families
Deeper Support
Having two doulas means double the knowledge, presence, and perspective. We offer consistent, skilled care that’s personalized for you.
Less Stress, More Calm
Doula care is proven to reduce anxiety and help you feel more grounded and comfortable during labor.
Stronger Outcomes
Continuous support is linked to shorter labors, fewer interventions, and more spontaneous vaginal births.
Confidence & Connection
With encouragement and guidance, you’re more likely to feel confident and in control of your birth experience.
Gentle Postpartum Care
Our team approach carries into postpartum, offering smoother transitions and more nurturing support after your baby arrives.
Benefits for Your Doula Team
Sustainable Support
By sharing responsibilities, we can prevent burnout and ensure that our care remains high-quality and dependable.
Reliable Coverage
With two doulas on your team, you’ll always know someone you trust is available. We are less likely to need to call in a backup doula.
Stronger Together
Doulas support one another, which strengthens the care we can offer you and your family.
How It Works
Partnership in Practice
Your doulas collaborate closely—sharing on-call schedules, preparing together, and staying aligned with your birth plan.
Team-Based Care
From emotional encouragement to physical comfort measures, your doulas work in harmony to guide and support you throughout your journey.
Holistic Nurturing
With two perspectives, your care is more well-rounded, addressing your emotional, physical, and informational needs as a whole.
At its heart, the co-doula model is about sustainability, connection, and the simple truth that families (and doulas) thrive with support.
