Birth Doula Services
Birth support:
Planning it out
We will meet prenatally one or two times in your home to create your perfect birth plan on a written document that outlines your desires.
I’ll answer all of your questions about labor, birth, and newborn behavior and characteristics, ensuring you feel confident and ready. I’ll also be available to you via phone, text, and email from the time of hiring for any questions that might pop into your head. I also provide resources and referrals to local professionals and communities!
I will be on-call and ready to meet you at your home, hospital, or birth center at any time for up to 2 weeks before and after your estimated due date. Ready to provide…
Emotional and Physical Support
Call or text me when labor begins, day or night, and we’ll figure out next steps together. We’ll talk through early labor techniques and stay in touch as you progress.
I’ll be ready to join you in person once active labor begins, providing you with knowledge, advice, and emotional support. I will advocate for your birth plan to be valued and incorporated into your care.
My on-site support will continue up to a few hours postpartum.
In the following week, we will connect again in your home or via Zoom to touch base and answer any final questions you may have.

Important reminders
Birth-work is a fluid and flexible lifestyle which means that the first week of services will likely look different than the planned schedule due to the spontaneous nature of birth and the unpredictable day you will come home from the birth facility. Additionally, as long as minimum hours are being met, the exact days and times can be flexible to fit the weekly individual needs of your family.
