Birth & Postpartum Doula Support
The Passage provides integrative birth and postpartum doula support, childbirth education, practical movement for birth, and personalized pregnancy preparation for families from Brunswick to Portland and throughout Midcoast Maine.
At The Passage, education is the foundation of every offering. Pregnancy, birth, and postpartum come with countless decisions, and every family deserves access to clear, evidence-based information and compassionate support.
Whether you're preparing for labor, learning how to advocate for your needs, exploring movement and comfort measures, or planning for life with a new baby, The Passage provides practical tools to help you navigate each stage with confidence. My goal is simple: to help you feel informed, supported, and empowered throughout your journey into parenthood.
