Originating in Mexico, a Rebozo is a long piece of woven fabric with many purposes. Traditionally the Rebozo is worn as a shawl in order to provide protection from the sun, as well as to provide warmth in the cold.  It has been used for centuries to carry heavy loads, wrap children to carry, and to assist in childbirth.

 

As doulas and childbirth professionals, one of the most useful tools we can use in the birth space is a Rebozo.  With dozens of different uses for the pregnant, birthing, and postpartum mother, it is one item many doulas are always sure to bring to births.
