Services
As a solo doula with 12 years of experience, I personally provide continuous support throughout your pregnancy, b irth and postpartum time. Since I am no longer managing a team you will be working with me directly for consistent, personalized care.
My home base is Asheville NC, but I love serving all of WNC with doula support that wraps your family in support and comfort throughout your pregnancy and postpartum time.
Having a doula as part of your support team and builds confidence for both you and your partner.
"We gave birth to our beautiful daughter yesterday morning. Jessica was so amazing with us! She came at just the right time. Calm and energetic in the exact way we needed at that moment. (And armed with Bojangles chicken biscuits!!) We were in a tough spot with some hard decisions to make. With Jessica there by our side we were able to follow through in the right ways for us. She was integral in guiding us through the labor experience. We will never be able to thank her enough for how she was there for us in our most vulnerable time." ~ Stephanie W.
Here’s a breakdown of our services:
Doula support packages vary in price, and you can add on different packages to customize your care. All fees can be set up as a payment plan, and we accept most HSA and FSA plans. We also welcome gifts of support from friends and family to help offset the cost of the doula support. *
Birth Doula:
My specialtiy is supporting hospital births, I have a gifting in supporting high risk clients, those with anxiety, and past trauma. My goal in supporting your family is to make sure that you know your options, empower you in the choices and conversations that you have with your providers, to help bridge the gap in communication and to build great connections with your chosen team.
The cost of this starts at $2500.
Birth doula support includes 1-3 prenatal visits, which can be in-person or via Zoom. During these visits, we discuss your birth plan and get to know each other better.
Labor support: A significant part of early labor involves phone support, followed by face-to-face support and a postpartum follow-up. During the follow-up, we discuss your birth story, check on how feeding and sleeping are going for the whole family, and provide support, referrals, and refreshments.
With your permission during your birth I will focus on capturing those precious moments of support between you and your partner. These moments are often missed and the first moment when it becomes real for Dad (my favorite moment of all!).
