Doula Services
Birth Doula — $1400
Hiring a birth doula is an important step in your journey to becoming a parent. My style of doula is to meet you where you are and support you. I have been told that I give a very motherly persona- so you can expect to be well taken care of and nurtured! I like to build our relationship in the prenatal season with 1-3 prenatal visits depending on your needs. This allows me to get to know you more, understand more about your needs in birth and how to best support your family during the transition to parenthood. Starting at 37 weeks, I will go on-call for you until you birth your baby. During labor- I join you when you are ready for support and will stay up to 2 hours into the postpartum period. I conclude our time together with 2 postpartum visits to check in on feeding journey’s, healing, moods, transitions and supplying any resources your family may be in need of!
A birth doula helps with many things- from helping you find a provider/birthing location that matches your needs, to helping you find the resources you need to be able to make fully educated informed decisions. Doulas are great at helping determine when is a good time to head to your birthing location, Helping you get settled into your birthing location, assisting your support people in finding their zone while supporting you, positional changes to help baby into the pelvis and comfort techniques to make labor more manageable. No two birth look similar when it comes to support as a doula! I would love to chat and see how you picture doula support to see if we would be a good match for your birthing day!
Postpartum Doula Services
I have very limited availability for postpartum work! I take on 1 client at a time for postpartum work. Postpartum work looks a little different for every family. Sometimes I am coming to be an extra set of hands for a parent. Other times it is strictly baby care. Sometimes I have been asked to help get some light house hold duties done like start dinner, wash pump parts, fold laundry, empty the diaper genie and help give baby a bath! I have assisted overnights with families to help create healthy sleep routines, light sleep training and assisting with feeding troubles. I am happy to discuss how I can better serve your family unit specifically during your transition to parenthood!
Overnight support is only offered from 9pm-5am and is $40 an hour.
