Our team of birth doulas

Owner of Ysé Naissance — Doula — Perinatal naturopath

Perinatal care has always been my passion, and it was through my own experience of motherhood that I discovered what good support can do.

I'm mom to two little girls, and I chose this work to help couples experience parenthood in the best way possible. I was also a breastfeeding volunteer with Nourri-Source. Since 2023 I've been teaching future doulas as an instructor for the school Mère et Monde.

Doula — perinatal naturopath

Hi, I'm Elisabeth Lachance, birth doula.

It's with a great deal of care and experience that I offer to walk beside you throughout your perinatal journey. My role is to support you at every step — during pregnancy, at the birth, and after your baby arrives.

For more than 14 years I've had the honour of guiding many families through hundreds of births. Every time, I've seen that each birth is unique, and it's with that deep conviction that I walk beside you on this adventure. You deserve a birth that feels like your own, in confidence and calm, whatever way your baby chooses to make their entrance into this world.

I also offer a postpartum support with powerful tools designed to help you better understand and take on your parenting roles, so you can support your family calmly through this new stage.

My goal is for you to welcome your baby gently, trusting yourself and what your body can do.

Doula — perinatal naturopath

Passionate and inspiring, I've supported more than 450 couples over the past 17 years.

My ease with communication, along with my training in coaching and couple dynamics, and massage therapy mean I support the mother and the couple as a whole.

I pass on my experience and concrete tools through images (which are worth a thousand words), through pointers and through hands-on practice, so that the couple can truly "live" the birth.

People tell me I'm warm and a motivator at heart, and that I prepare a woman to believe in herself, to let go and to dive into that mysterious process that is birth… all the way to the arrival of her newborn!

Doula — perinatal naturopath

Hello,

My name is Marie Dominique, 

my decision to become a doula didn't happen by chance. It grew out of a miscarriage — a moment when I realized just how much every woman deserves to be accompanied, heard and supported through what she's going through.

Motherhood has always moved me deeply. Today I want to be that calm, reassuring presence beside you — the one who is there for you, without judgment, at your own pace.

Whether it's preparing for your birth, being there on the day itself or supporting you through your first weeks with baby, I adapt to what you need. I'm also training in perinatal naturopathy so I can offer you even more complete support.

I'd love to meet you.

Doula — perinatal naturotherapist

I'm mom to one child, and I've also been through an abortion. Both of these life passages transformed me profoundly and led me to my calling as a doula and therapist.

Today I specialize in supporting perinatal loss and birth trauma.

My approach is built on autonomy and freedom of choice. I care deeply about helping each family find its own answers, by giving clear, reliable information backed by scientific evidence. For me, being present at births and witnessing these one-of-a-kind moments is a real privilege.

Empathetic listening, a judgment-free welcome and ongoing training shape how I work as a doula.

I like to slow time down during our meetings: to offer a space to simply be, to feel, to honour and cherish every moment — whether during pregnancy, birth, the postnatal period, or through birth ceremonies or ceremonies for unborn children.

Being a doula means being many things. It means an attentive eye, a listening ear and gentle hands to soothe, comfort and support. It also means knowing how to offer a safe space where life's joys, trials and sacred passages are welcomed, heard and honoured.

As a full-spectrum perinatal doula (full-spectrum doula), I recognize that your perinatal journey can be both a vulnerable and a deeply transformative experience. It's a time when you deserve to feel seen, heard and supported in a way that respects your needs, your values and your reality.

My role is to offer you grounded, caring and holistic support through all these changes, to help you move through this transition and take in the many dimensions of parenthood.

Together we can create a birth and postpartum experience that honours the needs of your whole family.

Doula — perinatal naturopath

Hi, I'm Barbara,

I'm a birth doula, photographer and prenatal educator.

Deeply committed to reproductive justice, bodily autonomy and access to evidence-based information, I make a point of being a steady, informed and non-judgmental presence. 

What I offer you: informed, grounded and genuinely committed support. Combining human support with scientific rigour. The art of passing on essential knowledge, taking into account that every birth is unique, every body deserves respect, and every choice should be an informed one. I teach, I inform, I support — always with the intention of giving families back their power in the experience of birth.

As a doula and photographer, I document and bear witness to the quiet power of bodies that give life, and to the beauty of these passages.

My approach doesn't romanticize birth — it celebrates it exactly as it is.
