STUDIES SHOW THAT THE PRESENCE OF A DOULA DRURING BIRTH RESULTS IN SHORTER BIRTHS,
FEWER INTERVENTIONS, AND LESS NEED FOR MEDICAL PAIN-RELIEF AMONGST OTHER THINGS. 

Hodnett et al 2012 & Evidence Based Birth 2017

My boyfriend and I attended ‘Ready for Birth’ course with Louise and Karina Isolde – and we loved it.

It was great to be together in this travel of getting ready for birth and we both enjoyed the hands-on exercises and the theoretical part. Louise and Karina Isolde are well educated and experienced, they are well spoken and has great empathy.

And then it was great to meet other pregnant couples from around the world. I definitely recommend others to do the same.

Kristine, first time mom

Copenhagen Doulas was an amazing learning experience for me and my wife.

Karina Isolde and Louise do an amazing job teaching and supporting parents through the amazing journey that is pregnancy and birth. I would specially like to highlight that the courses are personalized for every couple, making it an unique experience.

Karina Isolde and Louise thank you for all the love and support during our journey.

Morgan, first time dad

I cannot really express in words how grateful I am that we had a chance to work with Louise and Karina.

After a traumatic emergency cesarean birth of our first daughter, we decided to work with Karina and Louise to prepare ourselves better for the birth of our second daughter.

Karina and Louise provided us with so many tools, ideas and suggestions. They are professional, sweet and amazing! By working with them, I regained trust in my body and was able to have the VBAC I hoped for. Karina was there during the birth to support us and this (together with alle the preparation sessions) has been priceless for both me and my partner.

I can only recommend them.

Anna, second time mum

The ‘Ready for Birth and Beyond’ class put our minds at ease by giving us extensive information about birth and teaching us how to relieve stress and anxiety about the process.

Karina Isolde and Louise are forces of nature who taught us a less scary way to think about birth, how to cope, as well as how to manage relationships with medical professionals involved in pregnancy and birth.

As an added bonus, we build a great network of moms who continue to meet and support each other!

Tanja, first time mom

Louise and Karina Isolde work in tandem and hiring them as our doulas was one of the best decisions we could make.

Although sceptical at first with the general idea of having doulas, I could see how every session helped my girlfriend to relax, enjoy her pregnancy and see the beauty of expecting our son under her heart. Louise and Karina Isolde were nicely complementing with their advice on excercises, meditation, relaxation, massage techniques and all the information on what to expect and what not to expect.

Karina Isolde gave us a lot of mental support in times when we were worried about our son’s health due to some small complications during pregnancy. Luckily, everything worked out. I have to say that my strongest memory and gratitude dates back to birth – Louise was in touch with us since the first contractions started. She arrived to our place, helped with every single detail and gave a lot of support to my girlfriend. She stayed with us during the birth and was like a silent invisible angel, who took care of all the things in the background, communicated with the staff, provided us what we needed, while we could be fully in our own world focused on the birth of our son.

I am amazed by the professionality, sensitivity and love these ladies put into their job and I recommend them greatly. We will definitely hire them when expecting again.

Ivan, first time dad

My husband and I are so grateful to Louise and Karina for their teachings and support and for being the biggest pillars of strength in the birth of our baby.

We joined the birth prep class and the 6 sessions were insightful, emotional and prepared us the best way possible for the birth. The progressive structure of the course over 6 weeks gave us the time to absorb all the information and help us make an informed decision about our birth preferences. It’s also a great opportunity to meet other expectant couples and share thoughts.

We also took the full doula package where in the lovely warm ladies help me calm mentally and physically in my pregnancy while empowering us with their techniques.

On the day of the birth, Louise came home as my labor built up and took us to the hospital, took care of all the communication with the midwives at the hospital in accordance to our birth plan and I ended up having a natural, spontaneous and medication free birth, all thanks to Louise’s moral support and encouragement.

Anyone looking for a comprehensive guide to birthing in Denmark and understanding the healthcare system, birthing options, optimal positions, physiology of birth, partners role and how they can best support- the birth prep class is for you. And with the wonderful doulas- it’s a complete birthing team!

Amrita, first time mum

Doing the ‘Ready for Birth’ preparation class with Copenhagen Doulas was one of the best experiences I had during my pregnancy. I could share my feelings and be at ease.

I was extremely scared about the idea of birth and delivery, as a first time mom, but learning how to keep calm through talking, various exercises and yoga, really helped me through.

And of course, extremely thankful for the mommy group with whom I can relate every experience.

Nusrat, Isayah's mom

I can truly recommend Copenhagen Doalas. Karina and Louise are very professional, knowledgeable and caring. They really helped my husband and me to be better prepared, make decisions that were RIGHT for us, and helped me to lisen to my own body and mind.

The birth of our first child was problematic and I was left feeling sad, helpless and misunderstood. So when I got pregnant again I knew I needed to do everything in my power to not have the same experience again. I then contacted Karina and Louise at Copenhagen Doulas to get assistance in leaving my first birth behind and focus on the next one. They really helped me focus on the coming birth instead of focusing on the last one, they gave solid professional advice, helped me find my inner strength and believe in myself.

I wish all pregnant women would have the benefit of Copenhagen Doulas, they truly made a huge impact on my second birth—I walked away from it feeling strong, confident and truly happy and relieved.

Ronja, second time mum

I found Copenhagen Doulas and signed up to their ‘Ready for Birth’ class and I couldn’t be happier that I did.

The course helped me build mental and spiritual strength for the road ahead, not just internally but with my partner too, bonding us closer together.

The course also acted as a social springboard too and our group still keeps in regular contact, upholding and supporting each other which I am so grateful for.

I highly recommend this course for anyone who is pregnant and wants to add joy and confidence into the process!
