Consultations

Are you torn between doing it all yourself and getting some help?  Do you feel like you don't really need a full-on in-person birth or postpartum doula but you do have some questions and you don't want to go to Dr. Google?  Is cost keeping you from getting the help you would like?  I am now offering consultations!  These services can be used alone or added on to any of my other birth and postpartum packages.
Pricing:

2.5-3 hour in-home welcome home consultation $300
  • This is typically used as a postpartum visit.
  • Get all your questions answered and settle into your new role(s)!

​One 45 minute phone or Skype call followed by a one week followup 15 minute phone call $85
  • We will speak before our scheduled consultation to set an agenda.

Three 45 minute phone or Skype calls each followed by a one week followup 15 minute phone call $225
