This module has been created by Kellie Whiskin a highly respected Doula, Movement Therapist, Educator and Counsellor who sees birth partner's, as one of the most integral parts of the birthing woman's journey. All modules are inclusive and recognise that birth partners have unique perspectives and experiences too.
What is a 'birth partner'?
A birth partner is someone who is invited by the birthing woman, into her birth space, to provide continuous, non-medical support, during labour and birth. This may include, but not limited to, her intimate partner, family member or trusted friend.
MODULE 3. RELATIONSHIPS AS THE FOUNDATION
Relationships are not merely transactions; they are the essence of a fulfilling and meaningful existence, influencing both our personal and professional lives. This module equips birth partners with the tools to navigate and strengthen their relationship during the birthing process.
We will look at the importance of relationships and how this becomes even more apparent in the context of childbirth, understand that birth is a collaborative effort that requires teamwork, trust, and understanding and that strong relationships form a solid foundation for this teamwork to unfold. Relationships create the foundation where individuals can collaborate, leveraging each other's strengths and supporting vulnerabilities.
Benefits for Birthing Support Partners:
Effective Collaboration: Cultivate a strong relationship as the foundation for effective teamwork during childbirth, allowing you and the birthing woman to collaborate seamlessly with healthcare providers.
Trust and Understanding: Develop trust and understanding within the relationship, creating a supportive environment where you and the birthing woman can lean on each other's strengths and navigate vulnerabilities together during birth.
Build a solid foundation for support, providing a space where you can actively contribute, enhance communication, and strengthen the overall birthing experience simply by being present to the relationship needs of the birthing woman.
