Sibling Doula Support
What is a sibling doula?
A Sibling Doula is a specially trained professional—often rooted in birth or postpartum doula experience—who provides compassionate, on-call support for older children as they welcome a new sibling. Unlike a babysitter, a sibling doula brings birth awareness, emotional intelligence, and age-appropriate guidance, helping children transition through such a significant family moment with curiosity, connection, and comfort.
