Services
Doula Services
From your first hello through your postpartum follow-up, your doula walks alongside you every step of the way — before, during, and after birth.
- Initial introductory meeting at an agreed-upon location, free of charge, so we can get to know one another.
- Two prenatal visits — the first focused on discussing your birth desires; the second to review your goals and practice comfort techniques and birthing positions together.
- Assistance creating an individualized birth plan.
- Continued communication during pregnancy via text or phone to answer your questions. (Response time within 24 hours, unless your doula is attending another birth — you'll be notified by text if so.)
- Professional referrals and resources provided as needed.
- 24/7 on-call availability starting two weeks before your estimated due date.
- Uninterrupted support in your home, birth center, or hospital throughout labor and delivery.
- Ongoing assistance for one to two hours after birth, including breastfeeding support.
- One follow-up postpartum visit in your home with your doula.
Lactation
Lactation Services
We have certified lactation consultants on staff to support you before and after your baby arrives. Breastfeeding can bring up real anxiety and fear, especially in those first days — our consultants are here to walk beside you, answer your questions, and help ease that fear so you can feel confident and calm. Whether you're breastfeeding, pumping, combo-feeding, or formula-feeding, our support is for any family who wants informed, judgment-free guidance.
- Prenatal Breastfeeding Education — learn what to expect and how to prepare before your baby arrives, so you go in feeling less anxious.
- Postpartum Breastfeeding Support — hands-on help with latch, positioning, and troubleshooting once your baby is here, easing the fear of "doing it wrong."
- Pumping Support — help with pump fit, building a stash, and transitioning back to work or school.
- Common Challenges — support for low milk supply, engorgement, mastitis, and latch or tongue-tie concerns.
- Dietary Support (as needed) — guidance on nutrition to help support a healthy milk supply.
Available in-home or virtually, whichever works best for your family.
