As you near your delivery date, it’s pretty normal to deal with some nerves, especially if this is your first baby. The fact is that childbirth can sometimes be pretty unpredictable, and no matter how solid your birth plan is, there’s a chance it can fall apart at a moment’s notice. While you can’t control everything, you can be educated so you can be prepared for it all. This is exactly why Marisa Wright opened her practice, Sacred Roots Doula. As a Missoula birth photographer, I have gotten to connect with a lot of parents who have had help they loved. Here is why I think you should check out this practice!
About Sacred Roots Doula
Marisa Wright is a lifelong Missoula resident who fell in love with the process of birth after she had her first child in 2012. Afterward, she started to study to be a doula through DONA International. She has never quit learning, getting certifications in Spinning Babies, Parent Education, and even ISR swim instruction! During this season, she spent some time in New Zealand working with families. She is now back in Missoula, helping parents have their ideal birth. Her goal is to make you feel empowered for your birth experience.
Services
Through Sacred Roots, Marisa offers both birth and postpartum doula services. She supports all styles of birth and will help you feel prepared no matter what you choose. You will start out with 2-3 prenatal visits so you can get comfortable with her before your due date arrives. Throughout labor, she will be right by your side, providing you with both physical and emotional support. All her birth services include a postpartum visit.
Once your baby is born, you can book visits for support in the weeks following. Marisa is going to be there for it all, whether you need help integrating siblings, prepping meals, or straightening up the house. She can also advise you on lactation concerns. Marisa is certified in Postpartum Mood Disorders and will work with you to identify any potential problems so you can get treatment right away!
Specialty
As if her doula services weren’t enough, Sacred Roots offers tons of other services that will help you out. One of my favorite things she offers is a Mother Honoring Ceremony. This is a sacred ritual that will guide you on your transition into motherhood. She also offers holistic postpartum classes, Spinning Babies classes, belly binding, and postpartum consultants. No matter what you need for those first few months, I’m guessing Marisa has you covered!
