Resources on Doula
We received a message from the teachers who are essential when talking about doulas to the Doula Ship crew.
I hope that when you come here, you will feel like you have met the teachers, and that you will be able to recharge your courage and love.

To my ‘granddaughter’ doulas
It makes me happy just thinking about how you can support Japanese women and lead them to safer, more satisfying births. Always keep in mind that women remember the birth of their babies vividly and accurately for the rest of their lives. With your sincerity and support, the woman's memories of childbirth will be very positive.
In the name of Doula Spirit,

Congratulations on the launch of Doulaship Japan. I think this is necessary care in Japan as well. We value the importance of stimulating the secretion of the shy hormone during childbirth, and we will play our role in contributing to the creation of a time and space where the privacy of the person giving birth is fully respected. please.

Dear Doulaship Japan
When the midwife is unable to provide continuity of care, the presence of a doula is essential to support both the birthing woman and the midwife in order for the mother to have a natural, normal birth.

While midwives are not able to provide continuity of care a doula is essential to support the mother and the midwife to enable the mother to have a successful normal physiological birth.

Sending love to everyone at Doulaship Japan
There is something I would like to tell you all. A doula is an essential part of a carer. We need such doulas so much.
There is a real need for people like doulas who provide a variety of non-medical support as mothers' mothers.
Even as a midwife, you can do a better job with a doula. Childbirth is easier, the mother is happier, and both mother and child are healthier.
So, doulas, know that you and your wonderful work are so valuable. I would like to say thank you from the bottom of my heart. With love.

I want to send my love to Doulaship Japan.
I want to tell you that doulas are essential caregivers, and we need doulas.
We really need those women who mother the mother in an non-medical way. The care for them, in so many ways.
As a midwife, I’m a better midwife when we have doulas. The births are better, the mothers are happier, the mothers and babies are healthier.
So, please doulas, you should really value yourselves, and the beautiful work that you do.
I wan to thank you so much. I love you.
