Birth Doula Services
|
Continuous social support during labor, as provided by a birth doula has been shown to improve birth outcomes and greatly contribute to positive birth experiences. Research has shown that when doulas attend birth, labors are shorter with fewer complications, and moms and babies are more likely to successfully breastfeed.
Doula Service Package:
A doula can provide support at a natural birth, an epidural birth, or even a cesarean birth! |
Doula Services: $1200. |
What do doula fees cover?
Travel - Costs associated with driving to and from prenatal and postpartum visits, travel to and from the hospital or birth location, and any parking fees.
Supplies - Lending library, worksheet and handout printing, supplies used for myself, the mother and the partner during labor.
Time - Hours your doula spends with you prenatally, the full length of labor (can be 24 hours or more!), and postpartum.
Back-up - Assurance that you will have a doula with you in the rare instance that your primary doula is sick, has an emergency, or is attending another birth at the same time.
Your doula is fully available to you and on-call for the two weeks before and after your estimated due date. That means that she might miss work or be called from events with family and friends.
Note: A birth doula is a non-medical member of your birth team. She attends births to meet the emotional, physical and informational needs of the mother and her partner. She is not trained to provide any medical services or make any medical decisions.
