Monitrice & Doula Care
Choose the care that's right for you
Clinique Molière recognizes the invaluable role that monitrices and doulas play in providing continuous physical, emotional, and informational support throughout pregnancy, labor, birth, and the postpartum period. We are proud to offer monitrice and doula care services to our clients, ensuring that you have the support and guidance you need during this transformative journey.
Monitrice Care
Our monitrices are experienced, trained professionals who provide skilled support during late pregnancy, labor, and birth. They serve as a bridge between your prenatal care and the birth center, offering in-home assessments and support before you transition to the birth center for delivery.
Prenatal visits
Our monitrices will meet with you in your home during late pregnancy to assess your well-being, answer questions, and provide guidance on when to move to the birth center.
Continuous labor support
Once active labor begins, your monitrice will join you at home or at the birth center, providing constant physical and emotional support, suggesting comfort measures, and monitoring your progress.
Clinical assessments
Monitrices are trained to perform clinical assessments such as checking vital signs, monitoring fetal heart tones, and performing cervical exams to ensure the safety of you and your baby.
Collaboration with birth center staff
Your monitrice will communicate with the midwives and nurses at the birth center, providing them with updates on your progress and ensuring a smooth transition to the birth center when the time comes.
Doula Care
Our doulas are trained, non-medical professionals who provide continuous physical, emotional, and informational support during pregnancy, labor, birth, and the postpartum period. They work alongside our midwives and nurses to ensure that you have the best possible birth experience.
Prenatal meetings
Your doula will meet with you during pregnancy to discuss your birth preferences, provide information on labor and birth, and offer emotional support.
Continuous labor support
During labor, your doula will provide physical comfort measures (such as massage, positioning, and breathing techniques), emotional encouragement, and advocate for your needs and preferences.
Postpartum Support
After your baby's birth, your doula will provide in-home visits to offer breastfeeding support, assist with newborn care, and provide emotional support during the postpartum period.
Evidence-based information
Doulas are knowledgeable about the latest evidence-based practices in childbirth and can provide you with information to help you make informed decisions about your care.
A dedicated and supportive community
Both our monitrices and doulas work collaboratively with our midwives and nurses, ensuring that you receive comprehensive, coordinated care throughout your journey. They are committed to providing culturally sensitive, non-judgmental support and empowering you to have a positive, fulfilling birth experience.
By choosing monitrice and doula care services at our birth center, you can feel confident that you have a dedicated support system, working together to provide the highest quality care and support for you and your growing family.
