Supported Birth

Charges

If you think you may want to book me either as a birth or a postnatal doula, or even as both, then I am more than happy to come to your home for an initial visit free of charge. This will give you a chance to ask me any questions, to find out more about the way I work and how I might be able to help you and for you to get a feeling for whether I am the right doula for you.

For the Birth

For the full birth doula service there is normally a fee of £425, plus expenses (travel etc). A deposit will be required at the point of booking with the balance payable in two stages, one at the commencement of the on call period and one after the birth.

For Postnatal Services

Postnatal services are charged for at an hourly rate of £10 per hour, plus expenses
(travel etc). A deposit will be required at the time of booking by which point we
will have agreed the hours that you will expect me to work.

I use contracts for both my birth and postnatal doula services, copies of which
will be given to you at the initial meeting.

I believe it is important that all women should have access to a doula should
they want one, so I will take on some clients on low incomes with no charge,
making use of the Doula UK Hardship Fund to cover my expenses.
