Doula Support for Solo Parents
Whether you're a single mom by choice, your partner is away, or you're doing this on your own, you don't have to do it alone.
THE SHORT ANSWER
- I support single moms and solo parents through pregnancy, birth, and the weeks after.
- In labor, I can be your continuous support person, or support you alongside a friend or family member.
- Postpartum help at home, by day or overnight, gives you time to rest.
Prices and details can change, so check my Services & Pricing page or ask during your free consultation.
Before birth
We'll talk through your plans, practice comfort techniques, and think about who else you'd like on your team. Having someone to text with questions can help you feel less alone in pregnancy.
During labor and birth
I stay with you through labor for continuous support: comfort measures, encouragement, and help understanding your options so you can talk them through with your care team. If a friend or family member is coming too, I support them as well.
After your baby arrives
- Newborn care so you can shower, eat, or nap
- Feeding support, whether you breastfeed, pump, or bottle feed
- Light meals and light housekeeping
- Overnight support so you can get real sleep
- Connecting you with local resources and support groups
See my Spokane birth resources for local groups.
