Chicago Volunteer Doulas

Chicago Volunteer Doulas Our clients come from families who could not otherwise afford a doula. Many receive their health care at neighborhood clinics.

CVDoulas provides access to free and low-cost labor, postpartum, and pregnancy loss support. 📧[email protected] for doula service inquiries, rather than dm🤎 They range in age from teenagers to women in their 40’s. Most are Hispanic or African America, speaking English and/or Spanish. Most have family members who will be present at the birth. Their experience and knowledge

about labor and delivery varies greatly: Some attend the childbirth classes at clinic or the hospital regularly, others come sporadically and others not at all. Some are single moms and others are married. What they all share is the wish to have someone knowledgeable about childbirth support them through their labor, and to have a healthy, happy baby.

This moment feels surreal. Full circle! 🥹

When we started sharing the work of Chicago Volunteer Doulas on TikTok, our goal was simple: reach more people with information that could truly make a difference. Today, we’re celebrating 800 amazing people who chose to be part of this community.

Every follow, share, comment, and save helps us spread awareness about birthwork, reproductive justice, and the importance of supporting Black and Brown families. It reminds us that these conversations matter and that people are listening.

To everyone who’s been here from the beginning and everyone who joined along the way, thank you for believing in this work. Here’s to growing this community and continuing to show up for the families who need it most. 💜
