Birth Doula Services
I offer a sliding scale so that cost will never be a barrier for your most positive birth experience. Scroll down for more info and please contact me anytime to discuss further.
Before
I will be there every step of the way to ensure that you feel fully supported throughout your pregnancy. We will meet to prepare for your upcoming birth. Together, we’ll talk about your hopes and expectations for your birth, discuss medical interventions, craft a birth plan and prepare for the postpartum period. We make sure that you are fully prepared and supported for your labor.
During
Once your labor has begun and you feel that you are ready for my support, I will join you either at your home or the hospital/birth center. I will be there to support you throughout the entirety of your labor. Once your baby is born, I am available to assist with skin-to-skin and initial breastfeeding or bottle-feeding support. I am also happy to step back and take some photos of your first moments together. Once you feel ready (usually after an hour or so), I will leave you to enjoy your newly expanded family.
After
I will be readily available in the days following your birth to answer any questions and provide resources to ensure that you have the support you need as you settle in with your new little one. Within the first four weeks, we will schedule our postpartum follow-up visit. I will come to your home to check in, make sure you have everything you need and provide an opportunity to process your birth experience. We will also have plenty of time to marvel at your newborn and all you have accomplished!
