Doula Services & Rates
As your doula, I will work with you during your pregnancy to get to know you and your partner. I will learn your hopes and fears for your upcoming birth and help you develop a birth plan.
Services Provided
Beginning 2 weeks prior to your due date, I will be on call for you in anticipation of your birth.
As an emotional/physical support person during your labor and delivery, I will support you by:
Reminding you of questions to ask
Suggesting positions and movements to keep labor progressing
Providing comfort when needed
I will remain with you and your family for a couple hours after the birth to help make sure you are settled. I will help you initiate breastfeeding if that is your plan.
During the postpartum period, I meet with you 1-2 times, to check on you and discuss questions/concerns about feeding and sleeping. I am there to listen and help process your birth journey.
My role is not to judge, but to support whatever birth you choose. I have experience with a variety of deliveries. I have attended vaginal births, planned cesarean births, medicated and non-medicated births, multiples, water births, inductions and perinatal loss.
I attend births in hospitals, birth centers and in homes.
