    •    resources and referrals

Labor
    •    in labor I will join you at your home or place of birth, depending on your preference, and remain with you for the duration of your labor and birth until 1-2 hours postpartum
    •    physical support with a focus on comfort measures and positioning to encourage labor progress
    •    emotional support and encouragement

I am currently offering the above package at a rate of $1200 (travel beyond 30 miles from my home may be subject to an additional charge).  I accept payments in the form of cash, check, or credit card.  Check with your FSA or HSA plan administrator to find out whether they consider doula services a reimbursable expense.  I am happy to provide a receipt for this upon request.   

I do offer special packages for repeat clients - email for more details!

For those families who do not desire full labor doula support, I also provide a la carte planning sessions at $50/hour (2 hour minimum).  These are tailored to your needs, but might include things such as writing a birth plan, learning about options for birth including interventions, teaching your partner different strategies for comfort in labor, etc.
