Compassionate Listening and Life Reflections
​Our death doulas are specially trained to ease death anxiety and help individuals find peace and love at the end of life.

The final months and weeks before death are not only a time of transition but also an opportunity to reflect, share stories, and create lasting meaning. Our doulas walk beside individuals and families in this tender time, listening deeply, helping write letters to loved ones, supporting small legacy projects, and simply being present when others cannot.

Through gentle presence and heartfelt guidance, our doulas ensure that no one walks this journey alone and that the end of life can be held with dignity, comfort, and compassion.

Peace of Mind Planning

Journey Home’s Peace of Mind Planner is designed to create a clear, compassionate roadmap for family and friends. Guided by our death doulas, this workbook helps you capture essential information—key contacts, family and friends, important documents, social media and digital accounts, even the unfinished “honey-do” lists that matter most.

Beyond the practical details, the planner also invites reflection. It explores dignity, legacy wishes, and personal messages, offering space for final reflections and the sharing of wisdom and love.

By preparing with the Peace of Mind Planner, you give your loved ones the greatest gift: the freedom to grieve without the stress of uncertainty, knowing that nothing important has been forgotten.

Creating a Peaceful Space and Ceremonies
The end-of-life experience does not have to be confined to a fluorescent-lit hospital room, limited by visiting hours. Our doulas help create a warm, calming space with music, scents, and the company of your choosing. We assemble loved ones, pets, and favourite objects that create peaceful memories.

Our doulas help plan living funerals, end-of-life ceremonies and vigils. These events can be traditional, unique or somewhere in between. Our doula’s role is to respect the path you want to take in your journey home. From the clothes you want to be dressed in to the people you want at your side.

MAiD Support
Medical assistance in dying (MAiD) is an option for dying with dignity. Our doulas review the eligibility process to facilitate end-of-life options when choosing MAiD and assist in completing and filing forms. We help plan your end-of-life ceremony and advocate your wishes with the medical community and your loved ones. Learn more about MAiD
