Birth
Philosophy
Birth is a natural miracle
that deserves respect,
compassion
and trust in order to
progress as it needs to.
But as with
everything in life, there are
variables that can't be
predicted and medical help
is sometimes needed. I am
there to help my clients
understand all their options
and support them through
whatever situation may
arise.
My doula services consist of the following:
 | | 1-3 prenatal visits
|
 | | Help with Birth Plan Preparation
|
 | | Available by phone or email for questions or encouragement
|
 | | Continuous support through your labor and birth
|
 | | 1-3 Postpartum visits- depending on your personal needs
|
|
As your Doula, I will:
 | | Support you and your partners right to make informed decisions regarding the birth process
|
 | | Work with you and your partner as a team in achieving a satisfying and rewarding birth | | | experience
|
 | | Provide support, comfort, and information about labor techniques and procedures
|
 | | Act as an advocate on the mother’s behalf | | | |
|
|
I prefer to meet with my clients 2-3 times before the birth to give us a chance to get to know each
other, discuss any fears or concerns mom and her partner may have about the upcoming labor and
birth, as well as go over relaxation techniques, different laboring positions, and answer any
questions mom and her partner may have.
I am always available by phone or email to answer any questions between meetings, and starting
when we sign the agreement, I am "on call" for your upcoming labor.
I usually stay 1-2 hours after the birth to help the new family get settled and started with
breastfeeding. I also do several follow-up appointments after the birth to go over mom's
experience, see how the family is adjusting to the new baby, address concerns or questions with
breastfeeding, and to admire the little one.

Are you looking for a less expensive alternative to doula services, but would still like support during your birth?
Massage During Labor is available at a package rate and is less expensive than doula services.
Services are designed to provide physical support to the laboring woman without the extended support/expense of doula services. Please contact me for more information
