Fee Details

I was trained in January and working toward certification, so my fees are a little lower right now. I offer birth packages (that can be customized, and I offer payment plans). These packages include prenatal educational meetings, a birth planning session, and unlimited support via text, on-call for 14 days prior to and after due date, support during the birth (unlimited, but may take breaks if it goes long), and a postpartum visit. I also offer a few other options like a hand-drawn photo and you and baby, a watercolor placenta, and add-ons like additional postpartum visits.
