A mother's story typically begins with a love story - and Jae Day's love story may be unconventional to some, but she and her husband just knew they were meant for each other after getting married just four short months of dating. What inspired this now-mother-of-four to become a doula was wanting to provide services to women in the Canadian Armed Forces (CAF), specifically mothers, after she had been in the military for over 13 years and saw that there was a need for available resources and support to pregnant women. After giving birth to her two boys and twin girls, Jae became a certified Maternal Support Practitioner (also known as a Doula), offering her doula services under the name "The Baby Days" and has worked as a birth and postpartum doula, mostly serving CAF women and spouses in the areas of CFB Borden and CFB Petawawa. This mama has remained strong, after her first son was diagnosed with a serious critical Congenital Heart condition and her twin baby girls were born premature and were in the NICU for several weeks before being reunited with their brothers and parents. Jae wants all mother's to know that pregnancy is one of the most beautiful journeys, but can also be of the hardest journeys, especially during a pandemic and she is here for anyone who may need resources, information, or guidance to help support pregnancy concerns during the pandemic.
