Fee Details
My birth package includes three prenatal visits, continuous support during your birth, and up to three hours of postpartum support after your baby is born. I also offer a separate first-night postpartum support option as an add-on to the birth package. The first night is a flat $400 fee and includes 12+ hours of overnight support. My postpartum support is offered separately, with day and night rates of $40–$45 per hour. Postpartum support can be arranged based on your family’s individual needs and preferences.
