Professional doula support makes a perfect Baby Shower gift! Unlike traditional baby gifts, which are quickly outgrown, doula care is a quality of life gift that can dramatically transform the birthing experience and even affect the days and weeks following.
Imagine – whether a long labour, planned epidural use, or emergency caesarean surgery, a doula can help reassure the labouring woman, making the experience less stressful and more satisfying. In fact, research has found that women who have one-on-one professional labour support tend to have shorter labours, fewer complications, and healthier newborns.
Family and friends may also contribute to the cost of doula care as a group gift. Payments can be made via PayPal, credit card, money order, or cash. Please contact me for more details.
Birth Doula Services
Birth doulas across the nation typically charge between $500 and $1,000 for a standard package. This generally includes two antenatal meetings, labour/birth support, and one postnatal visit.
My birth doula care package includes three antenatal meetings, continuous labour & birth support, and one or two postnatal visits depending on your unique needs. My current fee is set at $700.00 for the entire package(payment plans are available if needed). A deposit of $350.00 is due at the time of contract signing to guarantee your place in my calendar, with the remainder of the fee paid by 38 weeks gestation when I go on call for you.
