Birth doula

My birth doula services include a free initial meeting, where all your questions and concerns will be answered and we can determine if we are compatible. Once services have been hired, I will schedule 2 prenatal visits to get acquainted and prepare for your birth. We will discuss your preferences for labor support, pain control and how I can help support your goals. We will review your birth plan & I can help you with with writing one. It is at this time we will get to know one another.

 

When labor starts you will call me & I will arrive during active labor meeting you at your home, birth center, or hospital. I will provide you with continuous physical and emotional support throughout your labor, birth, and recovery. As doula I do not provide any medical care. I will remind you of your wishes and any information so you can make a informed decision but I will not make any decisions for you or your partner. I will assist you with breathing and relaxation, massage, position suggestions, encouragement, support for partner, and reassurance of normalcy of labor.

 

After your birth, I will stay for 1 – 2 hours and assist with breastfeeding. I will contact you the following day to schedule   a postpartum visit.
