Hi! I’m a first time mom looking for a positive, encouraging, experienced Doula to help guide me and my husband through birth. I am ideally preparing for a natural birth in the Kaiser Santa Rosa hospital, but am nervous an epidural will be pushed on me. I am flexible and open to the idea of an epidural if that feels like the best path at the time, but don’t want to make that decision out of external pressure. I would love to have the support of a Doula during birth to guide us in different coping techniques and positions (my priorities are being able to move around and just see where my body feels best - also interested in using water where possible). I also would love a Doula to help guide my husband with ways he can support me, and the Doula can focus on being my advocate with hospital staff. I was originally leaning toward a water birth outside of the hospital, but ultimately came to the decision to have the extra security of being within the hospital for any unexpected medical care for our son, but would like to simulate as much of a calm and natural environment as much as possible. Kaiser has a benefit of covering some Doula costs, and this is what we would like to do but am willing to pay some out of pocket. Budget is TBD. Are there any Doulas that are willing to bill Kaiser directly? Not deal breaker, but preferred.

We are looking for an experienced doula (more than 3 years) who is familiar with VBACs and mothers over 40. We are looking for someone with a calm presence, that includes massage in their birthing support and is able to travel to Napa for postpartum support (lactation, meal prep if needed, newborn support). We have Kaiser which covers birth support and up to 13 hours of prenatal and postpartum support.

I need a care provider who can take care of me after my C-section in the hospital and then at home.

Hello! We live in Marin county but are planning to deliver at Kaiser San Francisco. I am looking for someone to work with before and after birth as well as who can attend the birth. I have 11 sessions covered by Kaiser insurance. I am hoping to find someone who can help advocate for me during the delivery. I do plan to get an epidural but I am interested in doing other things like pressure to mitigate pain (haven’t explored this just yet!).

This will be a hospital birth with an likely induction due to my age (42). I had gestational diabetes in my first pregnancy (diet and exercise managed) and expect it may return. I also anticipate using pain medication and an epidural. My priority is to have a doula who can work comfortably within a medical birth plan, provide emotional advocacy with hospital staff, and support for my husband and I, and if needed, use techniques like Spinning Babies. My first labor was a 42-hour induction with a sunny-side-up baby, and my doula’s Spinning Babies work helped her turn. Prenatal massage would be a bonus. Our estimated budget would be $1500-2500, although preferred on the lower side of this.
