AI image by LocalRankA doula offers continuous emotional and practical support before, during and after birth, and the right one depends on whether you want labour support, postpartum care or both. This guide gathers ten established, currently-operating doulas in Singapore, from solo practitioners to larger collectives, each checked against its own website. Use it as a shortlist, then meet a few to find the person who fits your birth plans.
1. Four Trimesters
Four Trimesters, founded by Ginny, is one of Singapore's longest-running birth practices and says it has more than 20 years of preparing local families for birth. It offers birth doula support alongside antenatal classes, breastfeeding help and placenta encapsulation, and says it also trains doulas internationally through its own 'Optimal Maternal Positioning' approach. In-person group classes are held at a Singapore venue.
2. ParentLink
ParentLink says it has supported families since 1998 and runs one of the largest teams of independent birth and postpartum doulas in Singapore, listing around 15 doulas. Its birth packages combine prenatal home visits, continuous labour support and postnatal visits, while postpartum packages cover newborn care and breastfeeding help. It is also an affiliate of the HypnoBirthing Institute and runs several antenatal class formats.
3. BumpWise
BumpWise is a doula collective co-founded by Johanna Wagner and Deanna Kearns, both of whom describe themselves as founding members of the Doulas of Singapore society. The team offers birth doula support, postpartum help and antenatal classes, and says its practitioners draw on training in methods such as Spinning Babies and the Body Ready Method. Its founders describe more than two decades of combined experience supporting births in Singapore and abroad.
4. Papaya Wellness Doula
Papaya Wellness Doula is run by Sulin Corella, who describes herself as a certified birth and postpartum doula working in Singapore since 2020. She offers prenatal preparation, continuous labour support and postpartum sessions, and is one of the few doulas here working trilingually in English, French and Spanish. The practice says it supports births across major Singapore hospitals as well as home-based postpartum care.
5. Gentle Beginnings Doula
Gentle Beginnings is the practice of Tania Stephan Gowrishankar, offering birth doula support, postpartum care and lactation counselling in Singapore. The site says it is a registered and approved provider with the TRICARE Overseas Program for labour doula services, which can matter for families using that insurance. Its support spans prenatal preparation, labour and the early postpartum weeks.
6. Just Do Lah
Just Do Lah offers birth and postpartum doula support in Singapore, with tiered packages plus remote support options, and says it is taking bookings into 2026. The service pairs continuous prenatal and postpartum care with access to IBCLC-certified lactation partners, and covers births at major hospitals including KKH, NUH and Mount Elizabeth. Its packages are given playful local names rather than a single fixed tier.
7. Maison Mama
Maison Mama offers birth and postpartum doula services led by Charlotte, who describes herself as a European-trained midwife with a Belgian diploma and hospital experience in French maternity wards. She lists certification as a Childbirth International birth doula and breastfeeding counsellor, and as a HypnoBirthing instructor. Its packages range from continuous birth support with prenatal visits to streamlined options for experienced parents.
8. Blooming Births
Blooming Births is run by Chantel Kismet and combines birth doula support with two-day antenatal workshops for couples and postpartum parent coaching. The workshops are described as evidence-based and partner-supported, covering labour preparation and decision-making. Alongside birth work, the practice offers coaching for the transition to parenthood and for parents of highly sensitive or neurodivergent children.
9. Leila Ng
Leila Ng is a Singapore-based birth and postpartum doula whose profile is hosted by parenting retailer Motherswork. She lists certification as a DONA birth and postpartum doula and as a Lamaze Certified Childbirth Educator, and says she works closely with OBGYNs and nurse-midwives at hospitals including Thomson Medical, Gleneagles and Mount Elizabeth. Her services span prenatal consultations, childbirth education, birth support and lactation help.
10. Warda Doula Care
Warda Doula Care is the practice of Warda Yusoff, a Singapore doula who presents her work around Lamaze-style childbirth education and continuous birth support. Her materials describe birth doula and postpartum care, guiding families from pregnancy preparation through labour and recovery. The service's tagline centres on supporting women to birth with confidence and trust.
How to choose
- Decide first whether you need a birth doula for labour support, a postpartum doula for recovery and newborn care at home, or both, since many doulas specialise in or price these separately.
- Check the doula's own website or Google Business listing, and verify any certification they claim (for example DONA International, Childbirth International or Lamaze) directly with that body; the Doulas of Singapore society also lists vetted, certified members.
- Confirm your hospital or birth centre allows a doula in the delivery room, and ask the doula how often they have supported births there and how they coordinate with your OBGYN or midwife.
- Ask exactly what a package includes: number of prenatal visits, whether the doula is on call 24/7 around your due date, the back-up arrangement if they are unavailable, and how many postpartum visits you get.
- Request current fees, availability for your due-date window and cancellation terms directly from the doula, as these change over time and are not listed here, then meet in person to check you feel comfortable with them.

Infant Care in Singapore, Compared
Infant care costs roughly 1.9 times what nursery costs, and for most families the figure ECDA publishes is a regulatory cap rather than a price. 12 centre entries set against the cap, the subsidy table and the deposit — with the waiting-list question answered honestly, which is that no such figure is published.
