Services
considering investing in you and your baby’s birth journey?
birth package includes:
-
FREE 30min Consultation
Let’s get to know each other! Preliminary discussion of birth desires, priorities, and needs; in-person, via Zoom, or over the phone.
-
2 Prenatal Visits
1 hour each. Comprehensive sessions not limited to: discussing my role as your doula as well as your expectations of me, your partner’s desired role, desired role of medications during labor, and any birth planning you’ve done so far. These visits will also be a vital time to discuss [and practice] physical comfort measures and relaxation techniques. We will also discuss your postpartum/newborn plans at this time.
*On-call support available at any time via text and phone call during this time/until your baby arrives.
-
Constant Labor Support
From the moment you need me, I will remain with you for the duration of your labor and birth of your baby. Normally I will stay for up to two hours after the birth/until you are ready for quiet time together. I can also assist with initial lactation and feeding at this time.
-
1 Postpartum Visit
Follow up at your home after a few weeks to see how you and your family are doing, review your experience, lactation assistance, if needed, and gain feedback on my role.
Can a doula still help if you plan to have a medicated birth? YES!
Even if you desire to have an epidural or utilize pain medication during your labor, a doula’s support can be essential in promoting your physical and emotional well-being throughout.
