Our fee for doula services is $2200.00. (we offer a 15% discount for repeat clients)
Optional add-on: Birth Photography $300 During your labor, we can take a variety of pictures so you can remember the day. We think few things are more beautiful than a laboring mom…and her partner working to help support her! We will also capture the moments of you meeting your son/daughter.

We believe doula services should be available to all families who desire them and will work with families to accommodate many different financial situations. Please contact us to talk about payment options.
