The Hands of a Doula are

Gentle, caring

Loving, supportive

The Hands of a Doula

Touch and heal

Calm and excite

The Hands of a Doula

Squeeze hips and

Honor ancient wisdom in a Rebozo

They share energy and

Help breasts into a hungry babe's mouth

The Hands of a Doula

Wipe happy tears

Sad tears

Exhausted tears

The Hands of a Doula

Will change diapers

Feed families

Tuck in mommas and rock babies

The Hands of a Doula

Clap with joy when a new life enters the world

Then rest quietly on shoulders when a life enters eternity

The Hands of a Doula

Complete the circle of life

The Hands of a Doula

Are an extension of her heart

But they are not here own

The Hands of a Doula belong to those she serves

To those she loves

A Doula gives her hands to you ❤
