Thank you for sharing your story.

All done!

Hey, I'm Becky. And I'm a birth Doula serving families in the Vancouver area, I became a doula because I've always been drawn to supporting people through life's biggest transitions before becoming a doula, I work in Social Services and advocacy. And I realized that the elements that I love most fostering Community, making sincere, connections supporting people through tough times and the Fulfillment of making a genuine difference in people's lives are the very same skills that support families.
 He's through pregnancy birth in the postpartum period. I've always been someone people naturally open up to, maybe it's because I'm genuinely curious about people's stories or because I'm delighted by New Perspectives or because there really isn't such a thing as too much information in my world, whatever it is. I want to be that person for you and help to make your birth Story. One that you look back on with self reverence and pride. My caregiving style is warm light hearted and yet straw,
 My goal is to ensure that, you know, that I've got you, I love learning and I love helping my clients, make sense of information. So they feel confident in their choices rather than telling people what they should do, I help them explore their options and ask meaningful questions and figure out what feels right for them. I offer often tell my clients that they're the captain of the ship. My role is to be a right hand person offering guidance sharing knowledge, helping you navigate challenges and
 Reminding you of your strengths when you need it? Most, and while my focus is on the birthing person, I'm passionate about supporting Partners to and a lot of Partners want to be involved in supportive, but they're worried about not knowing what to do or saying the wrong thing. Part of my role is helping them feel confident to, so they can show up as an active support of member of the team rather than feeling like they're standing on the sidelines.
 My background includes Social Service work, advocacy, hospitality and Logistics, which might sound like an unusual combination, but it means I'm experience. It supporting people staying calm, under pressure and anticipating needs before they arise. I'm also cognizant that people come from different circumstances and will have their own set of strengths and areas where they need more support. My job is to identify those and work to support you and your partner in the ways that suit you best.
 I believe, birth works best when everyone is working together. Whether that's your partner, your Healthcare Providers, or other members of your support team. I strive to create an environment where everyone feels empowered in their role and focus on the same goal which is helping you feel secure and supported. So you can go to labor land, knowing that we've got your back and into Parenthood with a sense of confidence in yourself. If you're looking for a doula to listen, deeply provide evidence-based guidelines,
 Dense support your whole family and maybe even helped birth feel a little less overwhelming and a bit more exciting. I'd love to connect with you.

Hello & What's Next

Hi. Lizzie here. We're so glad that you're part of our brood and that there's so many families who are curious to get to know you and a little bit about your story. We're using video in a creative way so families can see you, hear your voice, hear a little bit about your story, and understand if tour a good fit to jive. Jill's going to help you a little bit more with your setup and we're going to share a few questions for you to practice and think about when creating a really short, casual video to share with folks. Thank you so much for your energy and sharing a little bit about.

Getting Set Up

Jill. Here some quick ways to get set up. Grab your phone or your laptop with a video camera in it. Set it up somehow. Maybe you've got a stand or on a stack of books. You're going to find a natural source of light, like a window. Or if you're like me, you have one of those fancy ring lights. And then click record when you're ready. That's it.

You. So you're all ready to record. Your space is lit. You're looking great. Everything is calm and quiet. Now take out a pen and paper or a postit note, and you're going to think about these three prompts that you'll answer in your short video. The first is I became a doula because I became a doula because the the second is my caregiving style is my caregiving style is and the last my expertise is my expertise is we've created these three prompts, so you can share, pieces that you've studied, elements that you like to apply in your care work to families and anything that feels relevant and true to you. Anything that you would share in person. Make sure that you start all the prompts like you would in a conversation. My caregiving style is based on my cancer sign, I am a water sign. Blah, blah, blah. Whatever feels good to you. And our videos are under three minutes, so keep looking at a timer and keep talking and finish when you're ready to go. Good luck.

Thank you & get consent

That's it. You're all done. Thank you so much for submitting that video. It's really going to help our families get to know you a little bit better, more about your caregiving style, and help us set up the right pairings of doulas and families so they get the care that they need. If you have any questions or want any support in any of these things, do it again. Just want to talk it out with one of us. Get in touch with myself, Lizzie or Emma. That thank you.
