What is an AyurDoula?

The journey from maidenhood to motherhood is in many ways a complete transformation of the mind, body, and spirit. Ayurvedic tradition believes that after birth, new mothers have the potential to take the road of deep rejuvenation or the road of deep depletion.

An Ayurdoula embraces Ayurvedic tradition of supporting new mothers for the first 42 days after birth. By mastering the principles of Ayurvedic postpartum recovery, the Ayurdoula can offer techniques for post-birth recovery to encourage physical and emotional healing, vitality and bonding with baby.

By bringing on an Ayurdoula to your post-partum journey, you are investing in the health of you and your baby for years to come.

  • Ananda «I met Jillian in Geneva through a WhatsApp group for moms. Given our common interests, we met for a coffee, and there was an instant click. Jillian is calm, very knowledgeable and just a great energy to be around. As I wanted to support my partner more for the birth of our baby, we booked a partner support session with Jillian. I highly recommend it - she really took the time to explain and show everything, took great care to make sure we understood each other and it just exceeded expectations. I would highly recommend working with her and will definitely use her services again!»

  • Anna « Jillian is amazing! She was an invaluable member of my birth team. She was available and quick to respond to all my questions during pregnancy and has a gifted way of explaining all the natural aspects and physiology of birth. She provided emotional and physical support leading up to the birth and held sessions for me and my husband to discuss pain management and laboring positions ahead of time which gave us plenty of time to practice. She helped me create a beautiful visual birth plan and I felt confident about my birth plan and knowledgeable about all of my options along the way. My labor ended up running very long all the while she was present, keeping me moving, and supporting me when I needed moments of rest. Overall, Jillian has excellent communication skills, a calm presence, and brings great energy to the room. I felt supported during my labor, delivery, and postpartum. In addition to doula support, we discussed postpartum self care, which I have found so valuable and have continued to implement every day. I would highly recommend her to make your birth and postpartum care as smooth and supported as possible. »

  • Victoria « I had a very good experience with my doula, Jillian, and my family and I will be forever thankful for her support. She was a bright warm light in my pregnancy journey, who made all the difference! When I met Jillian, around week 21 of my pregnancy, I was very anxious… hoping for the best… but a lot of times worrying about things that could go wrong with my baby. I wanted to do more to navigate through pregnancy and prepare for the arrival of my little one, but I did not know where to start. With my doula´s help I was able to gradually shift my mindset, and I certainly gained knowledge and confidence. The sessions together, the materials she shared (these ranged from videos and articles to useful slides and links to e-sites and contacts), and her support helped empower me to be as ready as I can be for labor and the arrival of my baby. We even had some sessions with my husband, including one to practice positions to manage pain during labor, and I found these quite handy. She is caring and energetic, and I found her flexible while professional engagement to make me look forward to our conversations. Any mom will be lucky to have Jillian on her side, I have no doubt about it. I know she will keep making a difference in many families. Gracias por todo y por tanto Jillian!!!»

  • Alex «We did a partner session with Jillian, which had very good, practical advice for dads to be. It was personal, she took her time and made us both feel more ready. I highly recommend!» (PARTNER)

  • Linda « Jillian listened to our concerns and questions and tailored our preparation sessions accordingly. Moreover, she gave me and my husband practical tools, information, and advice that we could implement during my labour. Jillian always went the extra mile regarding support, kindness, and availability. She never judged our decisions and respected all our birth plan choices. I'm very grateful for all the support Jillian gave my husband and me during my 18+ hour labour, and all the education and tools to make informed decisions and to have the most beautiful experience bringing our daughter to this world! I also received support from Jillian during my post-partum. She visited us regularly and prepared unique and delicious Ayurvedic recipes. She also offered some contacts to support my breastfeeding journey. Her presence during this time was very important for me to connect with others and with my baby as I struggled with my mental health after my baby was born.»

  • Amelia & Russell «My husband and I completed a partner support session with Jillian before the birth of our son. I also completed a separate movement session with Jillian. As first-time parents, the sessions helped us to both feel more at ease and prepared awaiting the birth. I was able to prepare emotionally and physically for the labour and delivery, while Jillian taught my partner techniques and practical ways to be a supportive birthing partner. Jillian has a very calming and wise energy and is full of knowledge about the pre-partum, birth and post-partum phases. She’s also very responsive and happy to provide follow-up support and resources. For anyone embarking on the process of bringing a little person into the world, she is a wonderful person to have on your side.»

  • Salomé «Participated in an Ayurvedic baby Massage Workshop with Jillian and it was so lovely, she explained everything so well and calmly even though all our babies were babbling away! My son loved it and loves his new little daily massage»
