About Mama Bear Doula Services of Maine

Bio

I'm Paige! My husband, Tyler, and I met in high school, and have been married nearly 10 years. We have two amazing kiddos. They bring so much fun, love (and chaos) into our lives and I wouldn’t want it any other way. Our journey into parenthood didn't look the way we had hoped or anticipated... our first pregnancy ended in a loss. I have a special place in my heart for anyone who experiences loss and/or infertility. I feel that by doing with work, I’m doing exactly what I was made to do.

Q&A

Q: What locations or areas do you serve?

A: I serve much of Maine, New Hampshire, and even Massachusetts. I’ve attended births from Bangor, Portland, Portsmouth, North Conway, Dover, Beverly, Boston, and many places in between. However, most of my births are at Maine Med. or Mercy in Portland, ME.

Q: How do you answer the question: "I want your support but my partner feels like they'll be replaced"?

A: Your partner is the expert in you, and I’m the expert in birth- together, we create the ultimate support team. My goal is to support you BOTH through the experience- from prep to postpartum. Oftentimes, I’m there doing “all the other things” so your partner can be more present, more supportive, while also sharing my expertise in the birth space.
