Payment and Rates
Payments can be made through check, cash, FSA, paypal transfer, venmo, square cash, or gift certificates purchased by your family or friends. Many insurances now reimburse for doula care, prenatal care, or postnatal care. Please check with your insurance to see what they cover. I can provide an invoice with an NPI number for you to submit to your insurance.
To make a booking, please contact me for an interview. After we meet and decide to work together, I will give you a contract to fill out and return with a 50% deposit. The remaining balance is due by 32 weeks of pregnancy or paid in full if booking is made after 32 weeks. My rate as a birth doula is $3000 for planned hospital births and $2500 for planned community births (home or independent birth center). Please contact me to discuss a sliding scale if you have an extreme financial need or belong to an underserved population. A travel fee may apply for clients outside of my service area.
