Lorna Carrigan

Lorna Carrigan is a birth & postpartum doula and a co-founder of Seaside Doula Collective.

My first "doula experiences" were in Prince Rupert in 1986 before I even knew there was such a word as doula.  I officially started down the path to become a doula here in Victoria in 2006, studying through Douglas College, Doulas of North America (DONA International). I was lucky enough to be able to attend a number of births while still working for the BC Government as a Human Resources Team Supervisor.  I have recently retired from government and being a full time doula is my "second act".  I have recently updated my DONA training through Mothering Touch and will be submitting documents for full DONA certification in August 2015.

I draw on my training, intuition, life experience and passion for the role of doula to ensure my clients are well cared for by providing continuous emotional, physical, informational and non-medical support to the labouring Mom and her partner.

I offer labor and delivery support, as well as post-partum support in Victoria and the Western Communities.

On a personal note, I have three grown children and two grandchildren.
