Doula Care for Labour and Birth

A doula's role is to educate and provide you with holistic care, focusing on emotional & physical support, which includes hands-on comfort measures during your birth. Learn More.

As insurance companies are seeing the value of doulas, some will reimburse for partial or full labour doula and postpartum doula services. Be sure to verify if yours will! Many of our clients have been able to claim our fees under pregnancy support or postpartum care services.

Our Birth Doula Package Includes:

  • Individualized prenatal visits: Together we determine the number of prenatal visits for your situation.
  •  Email, telephone or text messaging support, up until six weeks postpartum.
  • FREE access and borrowing privileges to our lending library, containing a large variety of books, videos and magazines.
  • Educational information via emails, in between our in-person prenatal visits.

  • Individualized postnatal visits are included as necessary, to help establish breastfeeding and ensure families are off to a good start for the first six weeks of your postpartum experience. 
  • A copy of any notes and/or photos may be taken during your birth. We'll also take your baby’s footprint upon request, as a keepsake.
  • Your doula is specifically on call 24/7 for you, within a two week period before and after your estimated due date, in addition to one week following your birth. Of course, if you happen to deliver prior to your due date, your primary doula will make every effort to be by your side.
