Janice Tadgell, placenta specialist and postpartum doula in Southwestern Ontario
Meet Janice

Janice Tadgell.

I have been a trained birth and postpartum doula since 2015. In 2016 I trained as a placenta encapsulation specialist, which has become the work I am best known for in Southwestern Ontario.

Postpartum care is an exciting journey that looks different for every family, adapting to your unique needs with each visit. My mission is to provide you and your family with the support and information necessary to make informed choices during your pregnancy and postpartum journey.

Postpartum doula services are offered through Rebirth Wellness Center in Byron Village. Placenta services are mine independently, with travel and shipping arrangements available throughout Ontario.
