Fee Details

My fees include prenatal care where I also attend OB/Midwife appointments upon request. I assure that we create a birth plan prior to delivery so that your vision is carried out fully! We will go over the signs of labor thoroughly so that I am informed promptly to be able to arrive as your support. I stay with you during postpartum care as long as I am needed and I will continue care until you are stable on your own without further support. I go above and beyond for my clients providing cleaning (I own a cleaning business as well), cooking and therapy (venting sessions). I am also available to be a nighttime nanny for extra relaxation to the family. I am a mother of 9 that included six boys and triplets girls, so I am seasoned and well prepared to assist!
