This package is designed to provide you with continuous, evidence-based care and emotional grounding as you prepare for the arrival of your baby. From the moment our partnership begins, I am here to ensure you feel informed, respected, and deeply supported. What’s Included: -Continuous Text & Email Support Support begins as soon as our contract is signed. Whether you have a quick question about a prenatal symptom or need a sounding board for your birth preferences, I am available to you throughout your pregnancy. -Two In-Depth Prenatal Visits During these sessions, we will build our relationship, discuss your birth desires, and practice comfort measures. We’ll also cover birth terminology and interventions to ensure you feel confident in your decision-making. -Unlimited Labor & Birth Support I provide dedicated physical and emotional support for the entire duration of your labor. My presence is not time-limited; I remain by your side from the moment you need me until well after your baby is born to ensure you are tucked in and comfortable. -One Postnatal Follow-Up I will visit you in your home during the first week or two after birth. This visit is focused on your recovery, processing your birth story, and ensuring you are settling into your new rhythm with confidence. *Flexible Payment Plans I believe every family deserves support. I am happy to offer flexible payment plans to ensure these services fit within your family’s budget. *Enhance Your Support: Ask me about adding Childbirth Education classes or Placenta Encapsulation to your birth package for a more comprehensive experience.
How I Support You Evidence-Based Preparation I provide clear, research-based information on prenatal wellness, including nutrition, movement, and relaxation. We will walk through birth terminology and common interventions together, so you feel mentally and emotionally prepared to make informed decisions with confidence and less anxiety. Personalized Birth Planning Your voice matters. I offer a safe space to discuss your desires, address any fears, and explore your options. Together, we will develop a birth plan that reflects your expectations, ensuring you feel heard and respected throughout your journey. Logistical & Home Readiness We will discuss early comfort measures and coordinate when to transition to your hospital or birth center. I also help you evaluate your home setup and plan for your immediate postnatal recovery, ensuring you have a smooth transition back into your space. Comfort & Labor Support During labor, I suggest gentle ways to ease intensity and stress. Whether through specialized breathing techniques, massage, or finding the most supportive positions, my goal is to help you manage the physical and emotional demands of birth. Advocacy & Information I serve as a bridge of information, helping to explain procedures or actions during and after labor. I am there to support your birth plan and ensure you understand every step of the process as it unfolds.
I have worked with Kirsten multiple times over my 18 years of being a mom and birthing 4 kids. She has always been incredibly helpful, resourceful and kind to me and my family. She truly goes above and beyond and has been a God send. She is extremely knowledgeable and flexible, answering all of my questions, calming my nerves and being a huge support. Highly recommended Kirsten!!!
