Fee Details

I believe everyone should have the right to access birth support so I use the "Green Bottle Method" by Alexis J. Cunningfolk to provide a sliding scale for all of my services or come up with unique ways to get you care that fits to your tailored needs. Talk to me and we can find a price that feels best for your needs. I am also open to trades for partial compensation. My sliding scale fee includes a retainer fee of due at the time you select me as your doula, with the remaining balance due at our final postpartum visit, roughly one week after birth.
