Services
By hiring a doula, you can expect to receive reliable emotional, physical, and evidence-based support during the birth of your baby. I will work closely with you to develop birth preferences tailored to your individual needs, and support your goals as a new parent.
Recognizing the importance of universal access to perinatal care, I implement a sliding-scale fee for clients when requested. With a sliding scale, I can help you determine your suitable financial contribution, ensuring affordable support. I also work with clients to create a payment plan upon signing your contract. Another suggestion I like to make is to have a “doula fund” as part of your baby shower gifts. This way your family and friends can be directly involved in helping support your perinatal care.
