The birth doula is part of your chosen birth team - regardless of where you choose to give birth.

Just a handful of benefits of having a birth doula include:

Moms are 9% less likely to use any pain medication

Surgical births (cesarean section) drops by up to 28%

Synthetic oxytocin augmentation (Pitocin) is less likely to be used in 31% of labors

34% of mothers are more likely rate their childbirth experience more positively

Research findings based on DONA International position paper: The Birth Doula’s Role in Maternity Care.

Whether you’re planning to give birth at home with a midwife, a free standing birth center or the hospital - I offer birth support services to meet you unique needs.

At this time, I typically support 3-4 birth clients per month.

I do have a team of “back-up” doulas that I have handpicked to work with, if the need for support would arise.

Cash, Check or Zelle are preferred.

I am able to accept and process debit, credit and/or HSA/FSA cards -however, there is a 3% fee that gets passed on to the client for processing a card.

Regardless of your payment method, you will be provided with a receipt for your payment.

I sure do! I work in collaboration with a few local birth doulas who work “on call” as back up for my clients - just in case.

Yes, absolutely! The doula doesn’t replace your spouse or significant other, we work together as a collaborative team!

Your spouse/significant other knows you really well. The birth doula knows birth really well.

Together - you have your chosen birth team that will work together to support you through pregnancy, labor and birth.

In addition, if your spouse/support person needs to step away for a few minutes, your doula is still there by your side offering continuous support.
