The NATUROPATHIC Doula Difference

Why a Naturopathic Doula? Naturopathic Doctors are trained, licensed healthcare professionals with specialized training in childbirth and perinatal care. Needless to say, we aren’t your average doulas! We incorporate standard doula practices with our ability to provide natural and alternative treatments (that other doulas cannot use) for perinatal concerns and your labour. Modalities that we use surrounding your care include acupuncture, botanical medicine, homeopathic remedies, nutritional and lifestyle counselling, hydrotherapy, supplement review and more.

Meet the Founders

Hi! We are Jessica and Shelly, two Naturopathic Doctors, doulas, mamas, foodies, and advocates for natural women’s health and perinatal care. We, like you, longed for an escape from medicalized birth and saw the need for a collective voice (or “group”) for all women and children nationwide. A calling to ensure all women have access to professional, expert perinatal care services. This is why we started NDG…

Meet our team

“Dr. Jessica was my doula last year when I had my twins and I honestly cannot say more wonderful things about my experience with her. She is a wealth of knowledge and was there to help me make decisions when I was unsure, she supported me both emotionally and physically and made the whole birthing experience easier on both myself and my partner. ”
Marianne, Markham
"She was a huge help to not only me, but my husand as well"

Melinda,Toronto
"Shelly was an invaluable part of my birth. She made me feel confident and empowered the entire time and had so many tricks to ease my labour"

Claire, Stouffville
"I'm so glad I hired a doula to help me prepare and recover from my C section. I went in feeling calm and confident and was equipped with the knowledge and tools I needed for an easy recovery.

Yvette, Newmarket
"I'm so glad my wife convinced me to hire a Naturopathic doula. Not only was she an asset to my wife, she made ME feel more confident in my ability to provide support"

John, Maple
"I can't image what my first couple of weeks without postpartum support would have looked like without my doula. She helped with feeding, bathing, and answered all of my questions.

Jana, Barrie
“Charmaine was a godsend, she helped me to make health and wellness a priority and the Womb cleansing ceremony was a reset. It was a bonus to continue with her as my Doula for the birth of my beautiful baby girl!”
"We were gifted a doula from a family friend. Having Charmaine present as our Doula for the birth of our stillborn and later as our grief support was a lifeline."
