Come As You Are
Birth Support that Rocks with You
Birth Doula Services
As a birth doula, I provide physical, emotional, and educational support so that you can focus on your birth, knowing that you are cared for. My approach is a little bit science, a little bit rock & roll—I make sure you have all of the evidence-based information you need to make confident decisions for your family while empowering you to tap into your instincts, beat to your own drum, and be unapologetically yourself as you make the incredible, awesome transition from person to parent. And we will get in a few laughs along the way, too.
I love to attend all births, whether you choose to have your baby at a hospital, birth center, or at home. I honor and respect your birth preferences without judgment, as I trust the families I work with to make informed choices that are in line with their values and unique preferences. I work for YOU, not your care provider or birthplace. Birth doula services include:
Support in Any Setting: Hospital, Birth Center, or Homebirth
Personalized Labor & Birth Questionnaire
Continuous Phone/Text/Email Support
Two In-Home Prenatal Visits
24/7 On-Call Support
In-Person Support During Labor & Birth
Breastfeeding Support
Postpartum Check-In & Referrals
Insurance Reimbursement
Birth Plan Consultation
Want support but not ready to make the investment in a doula? Let me help you write a birth plan and learn some basics so you are ready to move through your labor with confidence. With this service, we will:
Review your hospital/birthplace policies and practices
Learn about the birth options available to you
Use evidence-based information to guide your birth preferences
Learn advocacy skills to use during birth
Words from Our Clients
Rachel was there as a steady, calm, and reassuring presence for both myself and my partner
•
I cannot say enough good things about Rachel. This was our first baby and Rachel was there every step of the way.
•
What I didn’t know when we decided to work with Rachel was that we were also deciding who would hold one of my hands in the delivery room and support us during some of our most difficult moments. We’re so happy Rachel was able to be present for the birth and thankful for her.
