Postpartum Doula Services
POSTPARTUM SUPPORT includes:
• An interview at no charge. I invite you to ask questions about how doulas help, my experience and training, the services I offer including rates and availability.
Once I am hired I offer:
• Two prenatal visits at your home to get to know each other and to get a sense of how I can help you and your family in those first tender weeks of your new baby's life. I invite you to share with me your preferences and expectations regarding childcare, your personal care, housework, food preparation, running errands and educational support. At this visit we will determine how many hours of help you would like and a schedule to follow once your baby is born.
• After your baby is born I will come to your home for the hours and schedule we determined prenatally. If your baby is born before week 37 or after week 42 of your pregnancy I will do my best to fulfill our original schedule.
