As your birth doula, I will support you through three phases:

Prenatally:
  • Up to two prenatal visits with you to explore and discuss your priorities, concerns and questions you might have (existing HypnoBirthing or Amani students have one visit)
  • Meet with your partner and discuss how to best work together and exactly what you and your partner expect from me as your doula
  • Discuss birth preferences/ birth plan options
  • If requested accompany you to a doctor's appointment
  • Unlimited phone and e-mail support
  • Additional visits can be arranged

    I will be on call for you 24hrs a day beginning two (2) weeks before your estimated due date up until labor, however because I have children and have regular weekend classes occasionally another doula may have to take my place.

During labor:
  • Provide early labor support as requested
  • I will remain with you once active labor has begun until delivery
  • I will strive to maintain a calm and peaceful birth environment
  • Give you encouragement, reassurance and facilitate the communication between you and the medical staff
  • I help with suggestions to help labor progress, relaxation, massage, positioning
  • I make sure, that your needs are met
  • Take photographs if desired

Postpartum:
  • I will stay with you for about 1-2hrs after delivery, until you are comfortable and your family is ready for quiet time
  • During this time I can take photos of your new family
  • Help with initial breastfeeding
  • I will visit you within the first week after the birth of your baby to review the birth and address any concerns you have with breastfeeding or newborn care
  • Additional visits can be arranged

Fees:
  • RM2800 (total fee)
  • RM2700 for my HypnoBirthing / Amani Birth students / repeat clients
