Mission

The mission of Pittsburgh Bereavement Doulas is to support mothers and their loved ones experiencing miscarriage, stillbirth or a fatal diagnosis for their baby, by providing compassionate guidance through the process of birth, meeting baby for the first time, making the time together meaningful, and saying goodbye, so that parents are left with as little regret as possible, given the overwhelming and sometimes immediate situation. Like a traditional birth doula, they provide physical, emotional and informational support during labor and birth, but have special training in perinatal loss. Bereavement doulas will work with parents to honor this birth and support decision-making based on the family’s unique values, beliefs, and preferences.

Charting impact

Four powerful questions that require reflection about what really matters - results.

Our goal is to have a pregnancy loss center where parents can go and receive immediate and on-going support during and after pregnancy loss. This center will also include accommodations for out of town family members who come to support their loved one experiencing the loss.

Currently, we are looking for the perfect location and then we will have a capital campaign to raise funds.
