Frequently asked questions
Why should I hire a doula?
Here is a great article on the evidence for doulas.
What about dads/partners?
As your doula I do not want to take the place of your husband, mother, sister, best friend, boyfriend, partner, or anyone else you choose to have at your birth. I want to be there to give them ideas for how to best comfort and support you, to give them a break when they get tired or hungry, to take some of the pressure off, and to work together to make the birth of your baby a great experience. My goal is to work together with your partner to create a really well-rounded team.
Do you take payments?
I do! Typically 50% of the fee is due up front, and the remainder is due by 36 weeks. I am happy to split this into more payments, if that would be helpful to you! I accept cash, check, and credit card payments.
What if you get sick or can't make it to our birth?
I would be so bummed, but I wouldn't leave you hanging! I always work with at least one backup doula who I adore and completely trust. She would step in for me, and I know she would take great care of you!
Have you worked at the hospital/ birth center we are planning to use?
Below is a list of some of the facilities where I have worked. This list is always changing, but I am open to being your doula no matter where you chose to give birth!
