Abstract
Nurses and doulas do not always have positive views of each other. When labor nurses face challenges in their ability to provide continuous labor support, one might believe that a doula would be welcomed, yet this is not always true. Conflicts can arise between nurses and doulas, often because of overlapping roles. However, an optimal health care system is one for which there is an integrated system that fosters collegial interprofessional collaboration. This commentary explores the role of doulas and the care they provide and describes strategies to promote collegial relationships between nurses and doulas.
