Do you see a "grandmother, mother, aunt, sister or friend type" of woman at your birth or are you ok with anyone? *
Some women have mom issues so we want to make sure the appearance of the doula doesn't make you tense - for example, if you had an overbearing mom/grandma in your life - you may not want a doula that is older or who looks like that. Or you may want a younger doula because your sister is on the east coast and you want the younger energy in the room. I will tell you that it is a total personality fit and that comes in all shapes and sizes!
