Birth services begin with 2-3 prenatal appointments, with the purpose of getting to know birthing person, family or support system, understanding needs, physical and emotional comfort measures, learning birthing positions, health history and hopes for birth, creating a birth plan and birth education. As early as 13 weeks gestation.
I provide non-clinical birth doula support in the home and hospital and am comfortable supporting both vaginal and Cesarean sections. Support looks different for each birthing experience. Virtual support can be ongoing throughout pregnancy and labor, and physical support can begin in Early labor or active labor.
Physical support can look like: massage, muscle release, acupressure, use of TENS unit, counter pressure, assistance with positions for medicated or unmedicated births, use of birth ball or peanut ball to create movement, calling in nurses or doctors for assistance, use of rebozo, setting up room etc.
Emotional support can look like: Teaching and implementing breathing techniques for different parts of labor, guiding. a visualization or meditation, helping keep a rhythm and ritual for contractions, partner support, helping understand what you are feeling in terms of labor progression, helping understand interventions in order for you to make informed decisions etc.
After birth, usually 1-6 weeks postpartum, I provide a postnatal appointment to talk through birth & help answer any questions.
Typical birth support pricing: $800 includes 2-3 prenatal, birth support and 1 post natal appointment
Sliding scale pricing depends on the birthing person/family income and need. See sliding scale image for more understanding. Please reach out to talk about where you might fall on this scale and specifics of scale pricing.
