How It Works

Working with a doula is simple. Here is what to expect from our first conversation to the weeks after your baby arrives.

  1. Free consultation

    We meet by Zoom or in person for about 30 minutes. You share your hopes and questions, and I explain how I work. No pressure.

  2. Reserve your spot

    If it feels like a good fit, a $200 deposit holds your due date. Payment plans are available, with the balance due by 37 weeks.

  3. Prenatal visits

    Two visits in your home to talk through your preferences, practice comfort techniques with your partner, and plan for the big day.

  4. On call from 37 weeks

    I am on call 24/7 from 37 weeks until your baby is born, with text and phone support whenever questions come up.

  5. Labor and birth

    I join you in labor at home, the hospital, or a birth center and stay with you through birth and the first feed.

  6. Postpartum

    A postpartum visit and text support until 6 weeks, plus optional day or overnight help so you can rest and recover.

Support for every kind of birth

There is no one right way to give birth. I support you in the birth you choose, and I stay by your side if plans change.

Why families choose me

  • Local and close by. I live and work in the Inland Northwest, so I know the hospitals, the drives, and the winter roads.
  • Trained and certified. I trained through a Washington State-approved doula program.
  • One familiar face. The same person from your first visit through your postpartum check-in.
  • Support for partners too. I show partners how to help and give them a chance to rest.
  • Flexible and affordable. Payment plans, hourly postpartum care, and lower-cost options.
  • A little something handmade. Bundle families receive a crocheted keepsake for their baby.

Pregnant after IVF or infertility?

My husband and I have been on our own infertility journey for more than five years. If your road to this baby was a long one, I understand how much this moment means, and I'd be honored to support you.

Questions Families Ask

What does a doula do?
A doula gives non-medical physical, emotional, and informational support during pregnancy, birth, and the weeks after. I help with comfort measures, help you understand your options, and support your partner. I do not provide medical care or medical advice.
How much does a doula cost in Spokane?
My Birth Support package is $900, and the Birth to Postpartum Bundle is $1,400. Postpartum support starts at $32 an hour, and virtual support is $350. Payment plans are available.
Do you accept insurance?
Not yet. I am working on getting approved to accept insurance, including Washington Apple Health. For now, families pay privately, and some use HSA or FSA funds, so check with your plan.
What areas do you serve?
Spokane, Spokane Valley, Liberty Lake, Mead, Cheney, Airway Heights, and North Idaho, including Coeur d'Alene, Post Falls, Hayden, and Rathdrum. Virtual support is available anywhere.
