Jessica Rios
I am passionate about pregnancy and birth and have given birth both in the hospital and home with
midwives . I have been trained as a doula through DONA studying the art of midwifery for over a decade. I
am happy to be now offering doula support through Delicate Delivery Doula Services. My services include early labour
support in your home, hospital support, and postpartum care as well as ongoing pregnancy and birth classes that nourish mothers
and partners in the journey to birth.
I have had wonderful results using aromatherapy, homeopathy, massage, and accupressure during
labour. I have seen what courage and strength women find in themselves while a doula is at her side,believing in the
process of normal labor and birth. As your doula I work to build a relationship with you and your partner as we
create a circle of helping hands and hearts and a vision of your birth dreams. I mother the mother so that she
can reach into the depths of herself and become a mother for the first time or all over again.
Jessica Faith
Jessica
has been studying and concerned with specialized mother and baby care for many years. She completed the DONA certified
Doula training at the beginning of 2009 with the renowned Janine Nugent and also is certified in Neonatal Resuscitation through
Karen Strange. She was recently recruited to be a Midwives Assistant by Deborah Bartle. Jessica Faith is calm, patient, and
confident when it comes to the amazing process of birth. She believes strongly that the woman's body has a powerful and
incomparable ability to give birth to her child, which, when trusted and supported, will lead the woman to rebirthing herself
as a mother. Jessica Faith understands that the way in which a baby is brought into the world is the most important first
experience of its life and can significantly influence all future experiences. For this, she is committed to helping the parents
and baby have the best experience possible.
