How To Find The Best Doula in Tucson
Colleen Laszakovits – Best Doula in Tucson
Colleen is an RN and postpartum doula with 20 years experience working with families as they transition to life with a newborn. She is also a certified lactation educator and can assist with many breast feeding issues, challenges or concerns you may have. In addition, Colleen holds a Perinatal Mental Health Certification (PMH-C), enhancing her ability to support emotional and psychological well-being during the perinatal period. There are other good doula options in Tucson, but none have the same knowledge, quality, skill and commitment to service. With that said, the single biggest thing that sets Colleen apart, is her passion for what she does. Helping families navigate life with their newborn(s) is what she loves more than anything in the world. Because she has aligned her personal passions into what she does, her clients are the ultimate beneficiaries.
“Studies have shown that cultures in which women are cared for by others for a defined period of days or weeks and are expected only to nurture themselves and their babies during that time have superior outcomes in postpartum adjustment. We know that women who experience support have greater breastfeeding success, greater self-confidence & less postpartum depression.”
