Hi! I am looking for a birth labor doula and received your name as a reference. (Friend of a friend). Would love to chat more and see if you’re available. Thanks!

I plan to give birth at a hospital. I’d like to find a doula that will help me with the birthing process and post partum care. I’m looking for someone that accepts Medicaid.

I’m a first-time mom planning a hospital birth, and I’m looking for a doula who can help guide me through the process and options, especially since I’m still figuring out what I want my birth plan to look like. I’m feeling a bit torn between wanting to stay mobile during labor and pushing in a position other than on my back, while also considering the possibility of an epidural. I’d love support understanding how those options can work together and what flexibility looks like in a hospital setting. I’m also looking for help with lactation and postpartum feeding. I want to breastfeed but am planning to combo feed, and I’d really appreciate guidance on how to do that in a way that supports my milk supply and feels manageable as a first-time mom. Overall, I’m hoping for someone who can educate me, help me feel confident in my choices, advocate for me during labor if needed, and support me both during birth and in the early postpartum period.

I would like to give birth at home if I have a doula, which is why I’m inquiring.

I plan to give birth at Advocate Illinois Masonic Medical Center. I am looking for a supportive and experienced midwife who can help guide me through a natural birth. My goal is to have as natural of a labor and delivery as possible, using breathing techniques, movement, and positioning to manage pain. Medical interventions would be my last resort, but I understand they may be necessary if there are safety concerns for me or my baby. I would like someone who is patient, encouraging, and communicates well so I feel supported and calm throughout the process. My budget is flexible depending on the services provided.

I'm considering a home birth, my budget is 2k, and I'd like to just stay home without medication so I'll need mental/emotional/physical guidance for comfort measures.
