Postpartum Doula Services

What Is a Doula?


Doula comes from the ancient Greek and means “a woman who serves.” It is now referred to as an experienced and trained professional to offer families information as well as emotional and physical support for the parents, siblings and new addition to their family. Doulas can be used before, during, and after birth to provide practical and emotional support.

At Sitter Select a doula agency we are excited to better serve your family by being able to provide Postpartum Doula care. While this is a new service for Sitter Select, we have years of experience working with newborns, infants, and their families. It is a privilege to work with families at such an exciting life stage. We strive to meet and exceed the needs of our clients when it comes to taking care of their family.
