the handmaiden package
$1600
One (free!) consultation to meet your doula and interact in a more intimate, personal manner to foster relationship-building and determine if you are a good fit for each other. Remember, you are hiring a doula because of who she is, not just for what she can provide!
Two prenatal visits to discuss the role you desire your doula to have in your pregnancy, labor, and birth; discuss your birth preferences; review the birth process through the eyes of a doula; and review the support measures your doula will employ during pregnancy, labor, and birth.
24/7 phone support, as needed.
Continual physical active labor support, no matter how long your baby lingers before coming earthside.
One to two hours of immediate postpartum support, as needed.
One postpartum visit to discuss your birth, follow up with mother and baby, and answer any remaining questions you may have.
Future communication to observe the growth of baby...because your doula is your sister in Christ, not just another care provider!

sliding scale
Our three-tiered sliding scale is designed to make our supportive, extensive, faith-based birth doula care accessible to all families. Each tier reflects different financial capacities, allowing you to choose the fee that best fits your budget while receiving equal holistic care.
-
Full Fee
This tier reflects the true market value of my services and allows me to earn what I am worth.
If you choose the Mother, you are not only receiving doula care, but you are also helping sustain this sliding scale model by caring for those with less resources. If you are able to meet all your financial needs comfortably, including some “wants” and savings, this tier might be the best fit for you. Your selection covers the full value of my services, making it possible for me to offer lower-cost support to those who need it most. This tier is designed for those who:
Meet their basic needs comfortably, with funds for wants and savings.
Own property or rent a higher-end property, own or lease a car, and have regular access to healthcare.
Income covers your needs without stress, allowing you to contribute to this community-centered model.
-
20% off fee
This tier covers the essential costs I need to continue offering doula care and support my livelihood.
If you have a steady income but feel some financial strain when planning for larger expenses, this tier provides a balanced way to receive doula support while keeping my work sustainable. This tier would suit you if:
You meet basic needs but sometimes feel financial strain and are working on savings or managing debt.
You rent or own a property, have access to a car, and can manage healthcare costs but are mindful of expenses.
You’re able to afford occasional splurges or new items, but larger financial commitments require planning.
-
35% off fee
This tier is designed for those who often find meeting their basic needs to be challenging.
The Daughter provides a reduced rate that ensures care is available to all, even if finances are tight. This tier is for those who:
Frequently experience stress around basic needs like housing, food, and healthcare, and might rely on assistance for essentials.
Debt or income fluctuations impact your ability to meet needs regularly.
Rarely buy new items and typically thrift or borrow, and vacations or time off feel financially out of reach.
If you choose the Daughter, know that it is offered with love and compassion, thanks to the balance created by others paying full price. This tier makes doula support accessible to you even if finances are tight, honoring the commitment to make this support available to all who need it.
If one of these pricing options meets the needs of your family, please, do not hesitate to reach out.
We welcome the opportunity to serve you as your handmaiden, wherever you stand.
