What does "Doula" mean?
Doula is a greek word that literally means "a woman's slave or handmaiden." In modern times it has come to mean "a trained professional labor assistant" or, in other words, a woman who provides educational, physical, and emotional support during pregnancy, labor & birth, and postpartum.
My services include:
~A free consultation to interview each other. The purpose of this visit is to determine if the doula and client are a good match and does not put either of us under any obligation.
~A minimum of 2 prenatal visits
~Being on-call, 24-hours a day from week 38 until your baby is born
~Continuous support during labor and birth, plus 1-3 hours postpartum
~At least 1 postpartum visit
~Unlimited telephone and e-mail counseling throughout pregnancy and up to 6 weeks postpartum
~Limited labor/birth/postpartum photography
