Why "Turning Wheel"
"Turning Wheel" carries a deeply personal significance for us. The name reflects the profound journey of life, with its cycles of growth, transformation, and renewal. As doulas, we've witnessed firsthand the incredible power and beauty of childbirth, the gentle turning of the wheel as new life emerges. It's a reminder of the natural rhythms and cycles that guide us through this sacred experience. Choosing this name was our way of honoring the intricate dance of birth and the ever-turning wheel of life.

What is the Impact of a Birth Doula
Reduced Cesarean Section Rates: A Cochrane review of 26 studies found that the presence of a doula during childbirth was associated with a 39% decrease in the risk of cesarean section.
Decreased Need for Pain Medication: Research has shown that individuals supported by doulas during labor are less likely to request pain medication or epidurals.
Shorter Labors: Studies have indicated that having a doula present during labor is associated with shorter labor durations.
Increased Likelihood of Spontaneous Vaginal Delivery: Research suggests that individuals supported by doulas are more likely to have spontaneous vaginal deliveries compared to those without doula support.
Higher Breastfeeding Success: Evidence suggests that individuals who receive doula support are more likely to initiate breastfeeding and have longer durations of breastfeeding.
