A doula is a non-medical birth companion trained to provide emotional, physical and practical support to women and their partners during pregnancy, labour, birth and postpartum. In Switzerland, in Geneva, Lausanne, Zurich, Bern, Basel and Fribourg, certified doulas offer continuous, caring presence during birth, where medical staff often have to manage multiple patients. The doula provides non-medical comfort techniques: massage, pain-relieving positions, acupressure, use of the rebozo (Mexican shawl), birth ball, breathing techniques, visualisation and vocalisation. She also supports the partner, including them in the process and allowing them to take breaks. Her advocacy role helps parents communicate their birth plan with the medical team and ask informed questions. After birth, she may make postpartum visits to support breastfeeding, mother's rest and family adjustment. The doula never replaces the midwife or doctor but complements their work with continuous human presence. Certified training (DONA International, Doula Switzerland, etc.) ensures professional and ethical support.
