So many families are struggling in this season of life, and still deserve to have support during their labor and birth.
Most insurance companies recognize the benefits of supporting childbirth these days. If they cover any portion of doula services or childbirth education, it is worth asking your prospective doula if they can help you navigate that. (I CAN! π)
With the holidays upon us, having doula funds on your Christmas wish list is another great way to save your own out of pocket expenses. This also works for birthdays and anniversaries too π«£
If you meal prep, are crafty, offer massage or other therapies, your doula may just take you up on bartering services! We love a good deal as much as anyone! π€
Some doulas offer discounts for working with certain providers, certain birthing locations, military, repeat clients, etc. Many offer discounts around the holidays or last minute booking specials. It is always worth asking!π«Ά
If your friends and family want to support your birthing experience this way, it is a great option for crowd funding for a very exciting purpose π babies only need a few outfits and diapers and to be held and fed. They dont need 16 contraptions, all of the accessories, or that thing that has bad reviews but you want it bc its cute π you DO NEED someone who knows the proper way to do hip squeezes, rebozo sift, and the miles circuit tho πββοΈ
If im speaking your language and you are curious about birth support,
