Certified in Psychological First Aid

Deana Ruston, SBD is honoured to be walking this journey with you.
She is a Stillbirthday certified birth & bereavement doula.
She is working towards her Bachelors of Arts in Thanatology (grief & bereavement) at King’s University College, at The University of Western Ontario, and is hoping to graduate in the summer of 2015.
She has a keen interest in play therapy and working with children regarding the loss of their siblings. 
Although never experiencing the challenges of trying to conceive or of pregnancy and infant loss, drawing on her experiences from birth, being born at 25 weeks gestation, she believes she is called to this work and continues to let that experience guide her. She and her twin sister, have their own charity, Pennies For Preemies. It provides awareness of preterm birth and raises funds for the NICU at the Children’s Hospital in London, Ontario, Canada.

BIRTH & BEREAVEMENT QUOTES

A miracle is really the only way to describe motherhood and giving birth. It’s unbelievable how God has made us women and babies to endure and be able to do so much. A miracle, indeed. Such an incredible blessing.

— Jennie Finch

I honor you. {I DO}ula.

— an SBD Doula

A very small degree of hope is sufficient to cause the birth of love.

— Stendhal

Man’s main task in life is to give birth to himself, to become what he potentially is. The most important product of his effort is his own personality.

— Erich Fromm

Why is it that we rejoice at a birth and grieve at a funeral? It is because we are not the person involved.
