Welcome
Welcome to A Mother’s Touch and congratulations on your pregnancy!
“Speak tenderly to them. Let there be kindness in your face, in your eyes, in your smile, in the warmth of your greeting. Always have a cheerful smile. Don’t only give your care, but give your heart as well.”
- Mother Teresa
I believe every woman who wants a doula, deserves one and I am honored you are considering my services to be a part of this wonderful and intimate time in your life!
My name is Brealin Rogers and I am a birth doula trained by DONA International servicing the greater Phoenix Metropolitan area including the cities of Surprise, El Mirage, Peoria, Glendale, Tempe, Scottsdale, Mesa, Chandler, and Gilbert.
After the birth of my first son, whose birth went from bad to worse starting with a necessary induction and ending in a bad cesarean experience, I longed for the fairytale birth and devoted myself to empowering women in their own births. I was not confident in my decision making and did not advocate for myself and my son. Fortunately, the birth of my second son was everything I hoped it could be. As your doula, I know that the moment of your child’s birth is one you will always remember and I will do my best to make it a wonderful memory!
Support is unconditional.
It is listening…
not judging, not telling your own story.
Support is not offering advice…
it is offering a handkerchief, a touch, a hug…caring.
We are here to make women discover what they are feeling…
not to make the feelings go away.
We are here to help a woman identify her options…
not to tell her which options to chose.
We are here to discuss steps with a woman…
not take steps for her.
We are here to help a woman discover her own strength…
not to rescue her and leave her still vulnerable.
We are here to help a woman discover she can help herself…
not to take that responsibility for her.
We are here to help a woman learn to choose…
not to make it unnecessary for her to make difficult choices.
