Birth Doula
Prenatal
During your prenatal appointments, we will establish care and cover loads of information. We will discuss your wants, needs, and non-negotiables as well as work on a birth plan and practice physical support techniques for labor. This is a time to ask all the questions and allow me to provide you with the resources you may need.
Labor & Birth
I will be on-call for you from 38 to 42 weeks unless otherwise established. When active labor kicks in, I will be there to support you physically and emotionally until up to 2 hours postpartum. I will arrive with my doula bag full of goodies and be at the ready to ensure you have what you need during your labor and birth.
Postpartum
Depending on which package you choose, we will have one or two postpartum visits where YOU are the primary focus. While I love to snuggle with your new little one(s), my job as your doula is to focus on your postpartum experience and needs. We will check in on your emotional and physical state and discuss any referrals you and baby may need.

Placenta Capsules
Placenta capsules are dietary supplement made from your placenta after childbirth. The placenta is steamed, dehydrated, and then ground into a fine powder for encapsulation. Many new mothers choose to take placenta capsules to support recovery after childbirth, enhance energy levels, and balance hormones. This practice is rooted in various cultures and is gaining popularity among postpartum women looking for natural ways to support their wellbeing.

Placenta Salve
​
Placenta salve is a topical salve made from organic components such as lavender, calendula flowers, vitamin E, and other soothing and healing components mixed with your placenta. It is believed to have various benefits, including promoting skin healing, reducing inflammation, and improving overall skin texture. Many users apply it for conditions such as stretch marks, perineal tears, hemorrhoids, chapped nipples, and dry skin, taking advantage of its rich nutrient profile, which may include growth factors and vitamins.

Placenta Prints & Cord Keepsake
​
While you cannot consume your prints, they are a beautiful way to memorialize your placenta. These prints are so unique and allow you to remember the intricacy of the incredible organ you grew for your baby. Prints may be added to any service.
Cord keepsakes are made from the umbilical cord and what I make out of them depends on the length of the cord. May cords are dehydrated in the shape of a heart, while longer cords may be able to spell out "love" or the first initial of baby's name. These keepsakes are included with every services and may be returned in their natural state after dehydration, or be painted with a color of your choosing.
