On April 1st, 2015 three women started something new and unique to this area. National Capital Doulas was the first of its kind in Ottawa and became something fabulous, something those three women were very proud of and worked hard to create. Over the years the women who were part of NCD changed somewhat, each adding something to our rich story.

It was a wonderful beginning, an even better middle, and now we’ve reached the bittersweet end.

Jenn and Amie have made the difficult decision to say goodbye to National Capital Doulas. You may be wondering why we have made this decision and there are multiple factors. Know this hasn’t been easy – it has pulled at our hearts and our heads, but we know it’s the right choice. It’s time.

We can’t go without thanking every single person who has contributed to our story. We have supported thousands of families throughout this great region. We’ve learned something from each and every one of you, and hope we in turn made a difference for you.

We have been lucky to have many supporters in our community, and hope you feel we’ve returned that in kind.

Even though this is goodbye to NCD, it is hello to something new. Re:birth is our new beginning, our rebirth. Our hearts lie with teaching – expecting families, new families, and doulas alike. As we wind down you will see changes happening here moving us to our new story.

Farewell NCD – you’ll always be special to us. ♥️

We did it!

We're so excited to introduce you to our new baby - !

We've long been known in Ottawa for our education classes and professional rental services. We're never ones to sit idly by, instead we started thinking and planning of ways to offer more to families.

re:birth was born! Not only will we have the classes and rentals we're already known for - we're not stopping there. We can't wait for you to see how our baby grows over the next few months.

It's in the air! Change, that is.

The weather feels like it's shifting and edging us closer to fall. Children are heading back to school, or have already started. A new month has begun with new possibilities.

It feels like the perfect time to embrace . 😉

🎉 Finally - long overdue!

Yesterday we got some amazing news. The government has finally decided to stop fighting midwives in court for our pay equity!

They have decided not to appeal at the Supreme Court level… which means we have now, in no uncertain terms, WON!

Our AOM president shared with us:

“Congratulations, dear midwives! At each step, we’ve made history. This time, it’s undeniable to all.”

We thought in celebration, we needed to upgrade our shirts!
