My name is Michal Levy, and I am a birth doula. I am certified with DONA International and  ICEC.

I am married to Ely and have 3 children; Eran, Savion and Noga.

I became interested in pregnancy in birth when I was pregnant myself, and knew I wanted to help women give birth, but it wasn’t until after my second birth that I started studying to become a doula.

 

At the same time, I also started studying reflexology at the Reidman College for Complementary Medicine. Now I am specialized in treating pregnant women.

In addition, I also have a second degree in Reiki.

I finished a course for pregnancy massage, also at Reidman College.

My philosophy

Pregnancy and birth are natural processes that are part of a woman’s life. Nonetheless, pregnancy is a very special period which brings about a transition – the one that leads to motherhood. My philosophy is that pregnancy and birth should be approached as a normal part of life. A woman’s body is made for this process. Often, the medical world takes away the confidence that women have in their own bodies.

 

My goal is to put that confidence back into women, to show them that their bodies are very well able to deal with the task at hand, and to teach them tricks how to enhance that ability.

I bring a calming and nurturing presence to the birth that is essential for having a great birth experience.
