From pregancy to motherhood, I've got you covered.
My support as your doula starts right from the date of hire. I am available for you for questions and information regarding your wellness and care, emotional support and referrals for your needs. We'll build upon this relationship during our personal, in home prenatal visits where we'll get to know each other, explore your birth options, your postpartum needs and prepare for the big day by discussing and practicing comfort measures and techniques. I'm there for you throughout your pregnancy and stay in close contact as your birth day gets near and I go on call for you 24/7 at 38 weeks. My support doesn't stop once your baby arrives. I make sure everyone is settled in and needs are met after delivery. I'm there for you up to 6 weeks postpartum to help you navigate life with your new family member via phone/text support.
