My standard fee is $400. At the time of hiring, I require a deposit fee of $100 with the balance due by your estimated due date. Included in my package is at least one prenatal appointment, ongoing support throughout your pregnancy including resources and recommendations for anything that you may be needing, continuous doula support during labor and birth, and a postpartum visit.

A doula is experienced in childbirth and provides emotional, informational, and physical support to women during their birthing time.
Just think how long women have been birthing babies.  Up until recently, you could argue when birth moved into hospitals, women have traditionally been attended and supported through out child birth by other women.  Most of the time it was fellow female family members.
It is my passion that no woman births alone.  Birthing in isolation can be a frighting experience.  I am wanting to change that.
