Doula Services & Childbirth Education
Cape Girardeau, MO
Are you ready to have a
Natural Birth in the Hospital?
After my first birth ended in an emergency C-Section, I knew I needed my second to be different.
I hired a Doula & was able to have an unmedicated VBAC (vaginal birth after C-Section)
…and this experience changed my life.
My name is Mahala McClure, owner of Sweet Rose Doula Services, Cape Girardeau, MO. I am a certified birth Doula and ICEA Certified Childbirth Educator. After navigating two high risk pregnancies and having two radically different birth experiences, my passion has become helping women like you have better births. I know what its like to desperately want an unmedicated birth but to still want the security of birthing in a hospital. I provide education & support to navigate the medical world while still entrusting your body to do what it was designed to do… bring life into this world.

1. Get educated- Natural Childbirth Education Class

Get educated, empowered, and confident about your upcoming delivery. My courses are designed especially for those desiring an unmedicated birth in the hospital setting, including my VBAC momma’s. You will learn about natural labor & delivery, commonly used medical interventions & alternatives, and how to cope with labor. Your partner is highly encouraged to participate to learn how to better support you during labor.
2. Get supported- Birth Doula Services

Birth doulas are trained in supporting women during labor and delivery.

Testimonials

“She communicated well, I felt like I could go to her with any concerns I had with my prenatal care or questions about birth/VBAC/ pregnancy, I also felt that she was incredibly knowledgeable of physiologic birth and things we should be doing / trying leading up to and during birth, she supported us and gave us confidence in our goals, and she really made us feel like we were prepared and had someone in our corner to help make decisions with during birth if we needed to do so”
Jessica

… Mahala was always with us… She provided necessary information and was involved as much as she could. She was a huge help during labor to support both of us. She taught me some great techniques that helped me during active labor and stayed with me whole time to support me and (my) husband.
