Consultation
Free
A chance for expectant parents to meet with a Doula and discuss their birth and postpartum plans. During this meeting, the Doula will explain her services, answer any questions, and learn about the family's needs and preferences. It's a relaxed, no-obligation conversation to help both the family and the Doula decide if they are a good fit for each other. This consultation helps families feel more confident in their decision to hire a Doula and begin building a supportive relationship.
Consultations are via phone or video call.
