Great Article - Doulas Supporting Teens
For several years, Lane County has had a group of dedicated doulas who help teens pregnancy and birth. Midwifery today recently published an article about Doulas Supporting Teens out of Lane County.
Here is a small snippet:
If you are, or know someone, who is a teen and pregnant in Lane County Oregon, please contact Doulas Supporting Teens for help
Here is a small snippet:
"The program is currently meeting or exceeding these goals. With a cesarean section rate of 12.9%, which is about 60% lower than the national average, low birth weight at 4.8%, compared to the Oregon average of 6.1%(3) and a breastfeeding initiation rate of 99%, DST is affecting health in many beneficial ways for Oregon’s teen parents, as well as saving money for taxpayers and insurance companies (the majority of DST’s clients are on the state-funded Oregon Health Plan)."

You speak, we listen!
Are you an experienced doula looking to expand the types of birth you attend?
Are you a new doula looking for experience?
Are you interested in serving women who otherwise would no access to a doula?
Ayla Birth could be for you!
We are currently in the "volunteer" phase of Ayla Birth until we obtain the funding we need to pay each doula.
This means that we are unable to pay doulas at this time.
If you are unable to attend births on a volunteer basis, but are interested in becoming an Ayla Birth doula when we are fully funded, please fill out the application and check the box "I am applying for a paid position." Please note, consideration for inclusion as an Ayla Birth doula will be weighted towards who can volunteer, but will not exclude those who unable to do so at this time.
