Placenta Encapsulation + Tincture + Cord Keepsake
Placenta Encapsulation is a process by which the placenta is gently steamed together with herbs, then dried in a dehydrator. The dried placenta is then ground into a fine powder and encapsulated into pill form making it easy to take in the first few weeks postpartum.
A placenta tincture is made by infusing dehydrated placenta in alcohol.
A placenta cord keepsake is a uniquely designed umbilical cord dehydrated to be preserved as a keepsake.

Frequently asked questions
What is a doula and what can a doula do?
The doula is a professional trained in childbirth who provides emotional, physical, and educational support to a mother who is expecting, is experiencing labor, or has recently given birth. Their purpose is to help women have a safe, memorable, and empowering birthing experience.
A doula CAN support you and provide other holistic services for you.
A doula CANNOT provide any medical attention to you or your baby.
How is a doula different from my partner, practitioner, or family member?
A doula's job is to provide non-stop support for mother. They are there for mother, baby, the partner and no one else. A doula is the mother's personal birthing team, who only works for her and no other clients or obligations.
What type of families and births do you work with?
Susan The Birth Doula is trained in labor support for birthing mothers who choose to have a home birth, hospital birth, water birth, and unassisted births - medicated and non medicated deliveries.
Our services are tailored to African-American/Black mothers and other Women of Color. However, our services are available to all women, and all types of pregnancies.
We also provide discounted services to low-income families and teen mothers through our Every Woman Deserves a Doula Program.
What about the father's role when using a doula?
A father's role in their birth is still the same. The doula will provide father's with the tools to be able to provide support to the birthing mother. This includes comfort techniques to help mom have a safe and healthy delivery.
