I am honored to provide physical, emotional, and informational support to families planning to birth at home, in birth centers, and in hospitals. All of my clients receive compassionate, individualized care which includes prenatal visits, postpartum visits, and continuous labor support, plus unlimited correspondence via phone, text and email from the moment I am hired. I am on call 24 hours/day starting two weeks before the due date but will do everything I can to provide support as I normally would if labor starts before 38 weeks. I have completed the Spinning Babies® Workshop and I am trained in the use of TENS in labor. I support families and individuals of all backgrounds and identities, and I am happy to to honor the unique spiritual and cultural practices of the families I serve.

Prenatal Visits

Before labor starts, you can expect -

Periodic check-ins from when I am hired, plus -

• 1 virtual visit to discuss birth options and preferences

• 1 in person visit to discuss comfort measures for labor and birth

• 1 virtual visit to discuss postpartum preparation

Birth Support

I’m just a phone call away.

When you call me in, I stop what I’m doing and join you.

• For how long?
  Until your baby is born.

• Even if it lasts 24 hours (or more)?
  Yes.

• Even if I get an epidural?
  Yes.

• Can I call you in the middle of the night?
  Yes.

• How dilated do I need to be to request your support?
  It doesn’t matter - call me when you need me.

• What if you’re with another family when I go into labor?
  An excellent backup doula will provide support in
  my place until I can join you. This is no cost to you.

• Do you have reviews?
  Yes!

  $2500-3000.

Postpartum Visits

Postpartum is forever.

Check-ins continue after birth, plus -
