Pregnancy Support

You don’t have to hire a birth doula to receive support during pregnancy. If you’re looking for someone to answer your questions, help you prepare for birth, and provide evidence based information along the way, pregnancy support offers the guidance and reassurance you need without labor and birth attendance.

What Is Pregnancy Support?

Pregnancy support is designed for those who want personalized guidance throughout pregnancy without continuous labor support. Together, we’ll prepare for birth by exploring your options, discussing birth preferences, practicing comfort techniques, and creating a plan for the postpartum period.

If you’re looking for support during pregnancy but don’t need a doula at your birth, this service offers the same thoughtful preparation I provide to my birth doula clients. Through personalized education, planning, and ongoing support between visits, you’ll gain the knowledge and confidence to approach birth feeling informed, prepared, and ready for the transition into parenthood.

What You Can Expect

Every pregnancy is different, and the support you receive should reflect that. Before we start preparing for birth, I want to get to know you. I want to understand what matters most to you, what questions you have, and how I can best support you throughout your pregnancy.

Our time together is shaped by your needs. We may spend one visit talking through common interventions and informed consent, while another focuses on labor positions, comfort techniques, or creating your birth preferences. There’s no set script. We’ll focus on the topics that help you feel the most prepared.

Preparing for birth is only part of the journey. Together, we’ll also make a plan for the early postpartum period so you have practical support in place before your baby arrives. My goal is for you to head into birth feeling informed, confident, and ready for whatever comes next.

How We’ll Work Together

Initial Consultation

Our first meeting is an opportunity to get to know one another. We’ll talk about your pregnancy, your goals, and the type of support you’re looking for. You’ll have plenty of time to ask questions, and together we’ll decide whether this service is the right fit for your needs.

Personalized Prenatal Visits

Your package includes three personalized prenatal visits, each tailored to your individual needs. We may discuss birth preferences, comfort techniques, informed consent, common interventions, or postpartum planning. Every pregnancy is different, so our conversations will focus on the topics that feel most helpful to you

Postpartum Preparation Visit

Preparing for birth is only part of preparing for a new baby. During this visit, we’ll focus on making the transition into postpartum a little easier. Together, we’ll talk through your postpartum plan, and make sure you feel ready for those first weeks at home.

Ongoing Support

Questions don’t only come up during appointments. Throughout our time together, you’ll have text and email support so you can reach out whenever something comes up. Whether you need help finding a resource, understanding your options, or simply want reassurance, I’m here to support you between visits.

Who Pregnancy Support Is For

Pregnancy Support may be a good fit if you:

  • Want personalized education as you prepare for birth.
  • Aren’t looking for labor support but still want guidance during pregnancy.
  • Prefer to prepare for birth one step at a time.
  • Feel overwhelmed by the amount of information available online.
  • Want someone to help you understand your options and prepare for informed decision making.
  • Are planning a hospital, birth center, or home birth.
  • Are expecting your first baby or growing your family.

Don’t see yourself on this list? Please reach out. Every pregnancy is unique, and I’d be happy to talk about your needs and whether Pregnancy Support is the right fit for you.

Not Ready to Commit?

You don’t have to commit to a full support service to benefit from personalized guidance. If you’re looking for answers to a few specific questions, want help creating your birth preferences, or simply need someone to talk through your options, a single prenatal consultation may be a better fit.

One-Time Prenatal Consultation

Perfect for families looking for focused support without committing to an ongoing service or package.

  • Approximately 2-hour personalized visit
  • Evidence-based information tailored to your questions
  • Birth preferences review or planning
  • Comfort measures and coping strategies
  • Resource recommendations as needed
  • Opportunity to ask questions in a supportive, judgment-free environment

Frequently Asked Questions

Pregnancy Support focuses on preparing you for birth through personalized education, planning, and ongoing support during pregnancy. Unlike Birth Doula Support, this service does not include on call labor support or attendance during your birth.

Pregnancy Support can begin at any point during pregnancy, though many clients choose to start during the second trimester. Beginning earlier gives us more time to prepare, but support is available whenever you decide you’re ready.

Absolutely! If I have availability and you decide you’d like labor support as well, we’ll talk about transitioning to a Birth Doula package.
