Currently taking births in partnership with another beautiful, caring and experienced doula, Vickie Fernandez Wint
Together, we provide support for families in pregnancy, birth and postpartum- helping to bring your baby confidently, autonomously, and with joy into this world. Along with mindful and loving care in the new stages of being home with your baby. We offer guidance and practical support in family wellness, newborn feeding and newborn care.
We offer sliding scale pricing for our in-person birth doula services- we never want a family’s budget to be a reason they cannot work with us. We care deeply about being able to support as many families as we are able at the budgets that they have. The sliding scale pricing below represents our general sliding scale range but please do not hesitate to reach out to us if our website resonates with you or you have worked with us before and your budget is outside of the listed range. We are also happy to chat further about how our sliding scale works during our consult.
We accept HSA, FSA and Carrot.
