Professional labor support with clinical insight

Monitrice care is designed for families planning a hospital birth who want calm, experienced, clinically informed support — particularly during early and active labor at home.

Monitrice Care at Camina Wellness

This model blends the continuous presence and emotional support of a doula with the clinical training and assessment skills of a licensed clinician, offering guidance, reassurance, and monitoring during labor without assuming responsibility for delivery or medical decision-making.

For many families — especially first-time parents — this support can make a meaningful difference in confidence, timing of hospital admission, and the overall birth experience.
