​BIRTH DOULA SERVICES 


​“Doula” comes from a Greek word that means “a woman who serves”
​A doula is a non-medical birth professional who supports growing families with informational, physical, and emotional support.
Including a doula in your birth team is proven by best evidence to lessen fear about the process of labor and birth and provide you with a greater satisfaction about your experience.
The continuous support of a doula during your birth may also provide a safer birth experience by reducing your risk of unnecessary interventions ​
My goal as a certified and experienced birth professional is to support you by offering:
  • Evidence based information regarding pregnancy, labor and birth, and the early postpartum period
  • Help in creating a unique labor and birth vision ("plan")
  • Continuous physical support throughout the entirety of your labor and immediately following your birth 
  • Comfort measures during labor including emotional support, coping techniques, and body positioning suggestions
Happy Day Doula services include:
  • A complimentary meet and get to know you visit in the Fort Wayne, Indiana area
  • Prenatal home visits to discuss your birth and define my specific role for your unique experience
  • One postpartum visit to chat about your birth experience and family's transition​
  • NOW OFFERING a complimentary nutrition consultation with a Registered Dietician! ​​
Investment for certified birth doula services:
  • A non-refundable investment of $400 is due upon contract signing
  • A remainder of $600 is due three weeks prior to your EDD ​
A portion of each client's investment is donated to The National Association to Advance Black Birth (The NAABB)
