Schedule a FREE, no obligation 30 minute consultation convenient for you. During our consultation we’ll discuss your birth preferences, wants and needs.
If you’re excited and are ready for the next greatest chapter of your life, say the word, I’ll share a contract with you and we’ll get to work!
As your birth doula, we will meet prenatally to explore in detail your birth preferences, and learn what is important to you. I will support and guide you on how to apply and balance evidence based, intuitively honoring care to satisfy your unique, individualized choices so you are educated and empowered for a safe and satisfying birth experience.
In labor, I will join you either at home, hospital or birth center and remain with you for the duration of your labor, whether that is 6 hours or 16 hours, until a few hours after the birth.
During this tremendous time, I draw upon my skills and experience using a variety of techniques including, but not limited to, gentle touch, acupressure, aromatherapy, positioning suggestions, relaxation techniques, visualization, positive affirmation, helpful breathing recommendations and birthing tools to help your labor progress. I do not replace your husband, spouse or partner or any other family support for that matter. Instead, I seek to guide them to be as supportive as possible during the birth offering a continuity of care that is not often offered by the clinical birth attendants.
I will support your desire to bond and breastfeed, ensure a comfortable nursing relationship for Mom and baby or help transition everyone to recovery immediately after birth so bonding and rest can take place.
Finally, I will provide you with a postpartum visit in the comfort of your own home. During this time, we’ll recap your birth journey and answer any questions you may have related to my role as your doula. I will provide basic newborn care, hands-on feeding support, healthy postpartum reminders and even some light housework if necessary to lighten your load (literally).
While our official contract will be rounded out at this point, you are welcome to stay in touch with me for the whole first year of your baby’s life and the whole first year of your parenting, no extra cost to you! Call it an experienced Mom thing, call it above & beyond, this is a pivotal time in your life and having your Tribe around to ensure you are thriving is not a luxury, it’s a necessity.
So what do you say? Ready to create an incredible birth team?
