**I WILL NO LONGER BE ACCEPTING CLIENTS WITH DUE DATES LATER THAN JUNE 30, 2022.  I WILL CONTINUE TO TAKE REPEAT CLIENTS PAST THAT DATE. THANK YOU.**


I live in Berthoud, Colorado, and I practice my doula services in Berthoud, Campion, Erie, Firestone, Ft. Collins, Frederick, Johnstown, Longmont, Loveland, and surrounding communities.


My services include a free interview with the expectant couple to decide if we’re a good fit for each other. Then if I’m hired, I will provide at least two prenatal visits to discuss their birth knowledge and philosophy, their hopes and concerns, help with writing a birth plan, discuss how I can best support their birth wishes, and discuss breastfeeding. I will also provide phone, e-mail, and text communication throughout the pregnancy, 24-hour on-call starting at two weeks before the due date, my continuous support during labor and delivery, breastfeeding help, and one postpartum visit to discuss the birth and assist with adjusting to their new role as parents. I also provide photography during the labor, delivery, and after the birth. At our postpartum visit, I will give the couple a thumb drive of the photos as a memento of their birth experience, as well as a written timeline documenting their birth.


My total fee for these services is $1100.00.


There is an additional Travel Fee of $50.00 if you live more than 20 miles from Berthoud.


Repeat clients receive a 15% discount.


I offer a 10% discount to military families, either active or retired.
