Choosing a birth doula is an investment in your birth experience, and my fee reflects the professionalism, training, and skill I bring to every family I serve.

  • Professional Training & Evidence-Based Care
    Certified and continually trained in childbirth support, labor physiology, and comfort techniques so you receive knowledgeable, up-to-date guidance

  • Personalized, Skilled Support
    Physical, emotional, and informational support tailored to your needs — helping you feel calm, informed, and confident throughout pregnancy and birth

  • Dedicated Care Beyond Birth
    Prenatal preparation, on-call availability around your due date, continuous labor support, and postpartum follow-up

  • Reliable, Compassionate Presence
    A steady, nonjudgmental professional committed to supporting you and your unique birth experience

Your birth is one of the most important days of your life. My fee of $1800 ensures that I can provide the dedicated, skilled, and professional support you deserve.

My contract asks for a payment plan that starts with a 50% deposit with final payment due by week 38. Please let me know if you would like to discuss other arrangements.

NOTE: if financial hardship is a concern, please let me know as I can offer some suggestions for how you can access doula services on a sliding fee scale.

I can’t imagine having gone through this experience without Laurie. She is incredibly knowledgeable, kind, and able to meet the needs of the people she supports.

$100 per session. Option for 1, 2 or 3 total sessions.

(Prenatal education sessions are two hours in length and take place in your home or preferred location. We will develop a personalized curriculum based on your needs and questions.)

Prepare for birth with confidence through private childbirth education grounded in the evidence-based Birthsmarter curriculum and tailored specifically to your unique journey.

Unlike traditional one-size-fits-all childbirth classes, these sessions move beyond outdated models of prenatal education. Using Birthsmarter’s education-informed framework, I will focus on helping you understand your options, think critically, and develop practical skills that support flexibility, informed decision-making, and confidence — even when birth takes unexpected turns.

These two-hour personalized sessions center on your goals, preferences, and circumstances, helping you build coping strategies, reduce overwhelm, and feel deeply supported throughout your preparation.

All birth companions are encouraged to attend so your entire team feels informed, connected, and ready.
