I charge $1900 for Birth Doula care. I request a non-refundable retainer fee of $950 (this secures your date so not to overlap deliveries), the balance due at 38 weeks.
Please let me know if you are in need of a payment plan or hardship discount. No woman should be without birth support.
Doula: (Doo-Luh)
The word "doula" comes from the ancient Greek meaning "a woman who serves" and is now used to refer to a trained and experienced professional who provides continuous physical, emotional and informational support to the mother, father, baby and family before, during and just after birth.
Since 2003
Information was obtained from Mothering the Mother: How a Doula can Help you have a Shorter Easier and Healthier Birth by Klaus, Kennell, and Klaus (1993).
every BIRTH CAN BE A JOYFUL BIRTH.
Please tell me your expected date.
