The mission of Central Jersey Birth Services is to support women and families on their journey to birth. We view pregnancy, birth, and postpartum as a sacred rite of passage, and provide ritual, resource, and physical support to enliven this transformation. Blending ancient and modern birth arts, we inspire women and their partners to awaken to their intuition and voice as both baby and parents are born.
My job as your doula is to help you experience your best possible birth. I do not impose my own views, but help you understand all of your birth options and support your decisions. I walk beside you on your journey, taking the time to understand your fears surrounding the birth process and how we might work together to overcome them. All clients receive a gift package filled with items to inspire and support a healthy pregnancy.
Doula support package includes three prenatal visits and one postpartum visit. Each visit lasts for two and a half hours. I work with you to tailor three custom healing arts sessions to meet your needs. The following are tools that I use to customize a package for you.
Childbirth Education
Birth Plan Preparation
Massage
Reiki
Therapeutic Touch
Birth Art
Comfort Measures
Guided Meditation
Chakra Work
Shamanic Journey
Affirmations
Labyrinth
Informational Support

Building a Birth Altar
Throughout your pregnancy and postpartum period, I am available to you via email and phone for questions and support. You will receive inspiring articles, passages, and cards throughout your pregnancy and postpartum period. I offer use of my lending library of books, DVDs, and music for birth. I am on call 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, for two weeks before and two weeks after your estimated due date.
When labor begins I provide continuous support to you in your home or at the hospital. I use many of the tools listed above in addition to positioning, guided imagery, warm packs, cool compresses, mantras, and movement. At our follow-up visit, I present you with your child’s birth story.
Additional Services Available:
Holistic Childbirth Education
Baby Naming Ceremonies
Blessingway Ceremonies
Miscarraige Ceremonies
Marraige Ceremonies
Postpartum Doula service also available.
I am certified through Childbirth International
Carolyn was so helpfull to me during my delivery and after my pregnancy. I was so thankful to have her. She helped me understand what was going with my body, and explained what doctors were saying to me. She also helped me recognize that this was truly about, define what I wanted and what was best for myself and my daughter. To this day I tell everyone how grateful I am to have her. I appreciated that she was always available to me. She truly made me feel so comfortable.
Carolyn was with me at my birth. She was an amazing source of empowerment! I highly recommend Carolyn as a doula!
