Birth Package

As your birth doula, I am here to provide unwavering support throughout your pregnancy, labor, and birth. My role is to empower you with the knowledge, confidence, and comfort you need to have a positive birth experience, no matter your birth plan. Whether you're preparing for a home birth, hospital delivery, or anything in between, I tailor my care to your unique preferences and needs.

In addition to providing continuous support during labor, I’m also here to ensure clear communication with your medical team, helping you advocate for your choices and feel in control throughout the process. My goal is to create a calm, informed, and empowering environment for your birth journey. 

My birth package offers comprehensive support throughout your pregnancy and birth journey. It includes: 

• On Call Support - I am officially "on call" for about 4 weeks around your due date (2 weeks before and up to 2 weeks or more after), however, you can call, text or email me any time as soon as care has been established.

• 2 Prenatal meetings -  Prenatal meetings are an essential part of my doula services, offering you the chance to prepare mentally, emotionally and physically for birth. These are usually booked between 32 - 34 weeks and  36 - 38 weeks. During these sessions, we’ll discuss your labor and birth preferences, explore pain management options, go over newborn care and address any questions or concerns you may have. 

• Labor and Birth Support - I will meet you wherever you are to provide you with continuous support throughout labor and delivery, including comfort techniques like counter pressure, breathing guidance, and positional changes. This also includes immediate postpartum assistance (1 - 2 hours post delivery) to help with newborn care and feeding initiation. 

• Postpartum Follow-up - I like to meet with you 1 to 2 times during the postpartum period (generally the initial visit happens in the first week and the 2nd around week 6). These visits are ideal for checking on recovery, processing the birth and providing any additional support or resources as needed.
