Frequently Asked Questions
What does a birth doula do?
A birth doula provides continuous emotional, physical, and informational support throughout pregnancy, labor, and postpartum. I help you prepare for birth, offer comfort measures during labor (like massage, counter-pressure, and hydrotherapy), and support you in those crucial first hours with your baby. My goal is to help you feel empowered, informed, and supported every step of the way.
When should I book a doula?
Most families book a doula early in the second trimester, but I welcome clients at any stage of pregnancy, as long as I have availability. My schedule fills up quickly, so if you’re considering doula support, I recommend reaching out as soon as possible to secure your due date.
Do you support all birth preferences?
Yes! Whether you’re planning a hospital birth, home birth, birth center experience, unmedicated labor, epidural, or cesarean birth, my role is to support your choices and ensure you feel confident and respected throughout the process.
Are you an LGBTQ+ affirming doula?
Absolutely. I provide inclusive, affirming, and nonjudgmental birth support for all families. No matter your identity, family structure, or birth plan, you deserve care that respects and celebrates you.
What areas do you serve?
I provide birth doula support throughout San Francisco and the surrounding Bay Area, including Oakland, Berkeley, Daly City, and Marin County. If you’re outside these areas, I offer virtual doula support.
What’s the difference between a doula and a midwife?
A midwife provides medical care, monitors your baby, and can deliver your baby. A doula offers non-medical support, focusing on emotional, physical, and informational guidance. Doulas and midwives work beautifully together to provide comprehensive, well-rounded birth support.
Do you take insurance or HSA/FSA?
Many clients use HSA/FSA funds to cover doula services! I can also provide detailed receipts if you plan to seek reimbursement from your insurance provider. Check with your insurance provider to see if doula services are covered under your plan.
How do I book your doula services?
Booking is simple! Schedule a free consultation to see if we’re a good fit. If you decide to move forward, a signed contract and deposit secure your due date on my calendar.
