Attends hospital births? All Hospitals In all cases - hospital, birth center, or home birth - I will essentially be "on call", waiting to attend client births. Because of my low fees and the distance radius of my practice, clients need to contact me as EARLY as possible so that I can make travel and child care arrangements. Attends birth center births? All Birth Centers Attends home births? Any Home Birth
Birth doula fee: $150 Fee details: My birth doula fee reflects my student status. Once I attain full doula certification, my charges will increase to match local fair market value.
In an effort to carry out DONA's mission, "A doula for every woman who wants one" I may, in certain circumstances and at my own discretion, refuse payment and volunteer my services to a client.
Additional (non-certified) babymoon care from myself or a teen "mother's helper" can be arranged upon request.
