Consultation – FREE!
Your first step in securing birth/postpartum support! We will discuss your needs and goals, as well as discuss my role in your journey during a 15 minute introductory phone call.
In-Person Support
In-Person Labor Support – $2000
Continuous, in-person support during your labor, delivery and immediate postpartum period. Using my expertise after attending hundreds of births as a board-certified labor nurse (RNC-OB, C-EFM) for over a decade, I will guide you through labor, support your pain management goals, explain medical terminology and interventions, and help you advocate for the birth you want. The 2017 Cochrane Review found that birthing persons with continuous, in-person labor support had fewer cesarean sections and assisted vaginal births, reduced use of pain medication and regional anesthesia, and are more likely to have a positive birth experience. Labor support includes 1 in-person prenatal visit to discuss your goals, assistance with building your birth plan, unlimited virtual support throughout your pregnancy, on-call support beginning at 38 weeks, and 1 in-person postpartum visit.
