Insurance plans cover doula services for both prenatal, birth and postpartum support.
The amount of home visit vary among the insurance companies. View your plans benefit directly.
Doulas are private providers; labor support and home visits are mutually determined by you and your doula.
Home visits can be used anytime during the first year of birth.
Visit's are scheduled at your home during "traditional" business hours. If you require support while in the hospital, let me know!
Please consider using a home visit for prenatal breast feeding education; especially to understand interventions that may be recommended during your hospital stay.
