My birth doula package includes the following:

  • A fierce advocate during pregnancy, labor, and postpartum when you just need someone on your side. (I am ALWAYS on your side.)

  • Two 90-120 minute prenatal sessions where we'll talk about your plans, expectations, fears, whatever show we’re all really into lately, our grandiose future homesteading plans (no, just me?), and how I can best support you and your partner before, during and after labor. If there's anything you'd specifically like to discuss, we'll have plenty of time to address any pregnancy, birth, and parenting topics of interest to you.

  • Two 90 minute prenatal massages

  • One 90 minute postpartum massage

  • Free massages for all your animals whenever I’m at your house. (Don’t worry about them attacking me, it would honestly be more weird if you didn’t have a dog or cat or other furry thing who is all over me. I’m used to it!)

  • Unlimited support for you and your partner by phone, email and text throughout pregnancy, labor, and the fourth trimester. During this time, I'm happy to share resources, make referrals, lend an ear when you're having a tough time, celebrate your small victories, and laugh with you when you're exhausted and covered in poop (hopefully baby poop, but I won't judge). 

  • On-call availability 24/7 from the date of hire. I will be ready to leave and join you in labor within 60-90 minutes of your call, whether you need me at 32 weeks or 42 weeks. I'm also Jewish, so if you're having a Christmas or Easter baby, I'll just be missing out on Chinese food and a movie! 

  • In-person support during your labor, birth and up to two hours postpartum to help you settle in with your new family member(s).

  • If desired, I will take photographs with your cameras throughout labor, during the birth, and during your first moments as a new family. If you're really keen to get a good shot of your purple line, or a full frontal of your baby crowning, I am not shy at all! 

    (I’ve been honing my iPhone/android birth photography skills for many years now and am pretty damn good at it! I truly believe this to be one of the greatest gifts I can offer my clients at no extra charge - but I'm also happy to recommend a birth photographer if professional quality edited photos are a priority for you!)

  • Car seat safety checks before your birth and then forever after that. Seriously, just stop by my office and I’ll check it out whether your baby is 6 weeks, 6 months, or 6 years old. Let’s keep that kid you worked so hard on safe!

  • One 90-120 minute postpartum visit within a week or two of your birth to help you settle in at home and to make sure you are adjusting well to life with your newborn(s).

  • Additional postpartum services are available to contracted birth clients and existing massage clients only. Please let me know if you are interested in this service.

Things I absolutely do not include:

  • Unsolicited advice about pregnancy, birth and parenting. I'm sure you get more than enough of that from friends, family, co-workers, store employees, random strangers you pass on the street, and basically every other human being on planet Earth.

  • Judgement about your family situation, your messy home, your wild older children, your size, your sexuality, how you conceived or any other aspect of your life. I am honored to be invited into your birthing space, and I respect you for everything that makes you, you.

  • Conditional support. Rest assured that whatever choices you make, I'll stick by you to help you receive the care you deserve. 

Birth Package Cost: $2,495

No-frills packages are offered to repeat clients only. Please reach out if you’re looking to work with me again and prefer a slimmed down option!

Doula Consultation Request

Interested in meeting me? Fill out the form below to request a free consultation. We'll meet up for about an hour at my office at 314B Central Avenue (the building next to La Festa) in Dover or via Zoom, which will give you the opportunity to get to know me and learn how I can help you meet your goals. If you’d like to, bring along your partner, co-parent, or other support person to meet me as well. 

I am typically very flexible for scheduling purposes. Earlier morning appointments are easiest for me on Wednesday and Friday mornings, and I generally have evening hours on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and every other Friday.

Please Note: Due to the unpredictable nature of doula work, there is a chance that I will need to cancel our consultation if a client goes into labor. Should this happen, I will call or text you as soon as possible to reschedule.
