virtual doula sessions
Doulas are for every family, & every type of birth. Whether you are in my area or somewhere else in the world, I'd love to walk alongside you and help you prepare for your pregnancy, birth, & postpartum journey.

PERSONAL RECOMMENDATION PLAN
2 hours, $150
No matter your current level of preparation, we dive in together to assess what your current strengths & needs may be. Prior to our meeting, I will send detailed intake forms to get to know you more uniquely and will make notes to discuss in our meeting. This is an opportunity for you to ask me anything!
Together we will:
-
go over your intake forms
-
talk about general childbirth education, body balancing, breathing, & mindfulness practices
-
chat about your preferences & questions about a care plan for your birth & infant
-
briefly review comfort measures & what to have on hand
-
talk together about partner support resources
After our meeting, I will review my notes and send a follow-up email including my personal recommendations for your birth preparation.
BIRTH & INFANT CARE PREFERENCES

The term "birth plan" gets a bad rep, and true enough, there is no real way to lay out a "plan" for birth.
BUT, conversations surrounding your preferences for you and your baby's care is always important.
Together we will:

chat about your options
-
note which elements are most important to you
-
I'll give you evidence in order to make your best informed decision

complete a questionnaire to create a birth & infant care plan sheet to share with your birth team
-
talk together about how to advocate for your wishes & navigate choices presented
PARTNER SUPPORT
1 hour, $75
Whether you plan to have your partner, friend, and/or family member(s) present at your birth, this session helps your support squad understand more about how to serve you with confidence in your birth.
Together we will cover:

the do's and don'ts of a support person

BODY BALANCING & MOVEMENT

A moving mama = a moving baby, and preparing your body during pregnancy not only help get your body ready for birth, but can help you have a more comfortable pregnancy & recovery as well.

BREATHING & MINDFULNESS

what is a postpartum care plan & what to include
-
items to have on hand for your birth day & recovery period
