BIRTH AND POSTNATAL DOULA SUPPORT
Calm : Confident : Empowered
BIRTH AND POSTNATAL DOULA SUPPORT
FROM £1500
As a birth doula I would love to help prepare you for a positive, empowered and informed birth journey. There is plenty of research to support having a doula at your birth, evidence of shorter labours, reduced need for pain relief, lower incidence of instrumental delivery and an overall increased satisfaction with the birth experience.
For £1500 the birth and postnatal package includes
two antenatal meetings to talk through your birth preferences and discuss concerns
help you create a birth plan
attend antenatal appointments if needed
be on call for you from 10 days before your estimated due date, attend, support and reassure you through your labour and birth
remain with you and your baby, help you with a first feed and make sure you are settled and comfortable in those first precious hours
If you would like some additional postnatal support I would love to help with this and I can support you for an additional fee of £25 per hour.
POSTNATAL DOULA SUPPORT
£20 PER HOUR
A postnatal doula can be a huge relief and support during the first days and weeks of life with a new baby. We all feel differently after we have had a baby and the smallest support can make a huge difference. As your postnatal doula I can mother you so that you can mother your new baby! i can debrief your birth should you wish to. I will provide emotional and physical support and I will nurture you by helping to get you good nourishment, let you sleep, help with feeding - however you choose to feed, I am non-judgemental and will gladly support your feeding choice, or simply get a wash on. I will signpost you to the right support available locally, should you need it, and be another pair of hands to help you attend appointments.
My standard rate is £20 per hour plus travel if you live more than 5 miles from Petersfield.
