"Step by Step Process"
Step 1: Personal Consultation
We'll start with a personal consultation where you can share your unique needs and preferences. After our consult, take up to 72 hours to decide if you'd like to hire me as your doula.
Step 2: Contract and Deposit
I'll email you a contract for your convenience. You can easily sign it and submit a 50% deposit of the total contract amount to secure your time with me. The remaining balance will be due one month before your due date unless you prefer alternative payment options.
Step 3: In-Home Consultation
Once the contract is signed and the deposit is paid, your time with me is secured. We'll schedule a one-on-one, in-home consultation to discuss your plan, tour your nursery, and get to know each other a bit better before services begin (optional).
Step 4: Keeping In Touch
Please keep me updated with any major developments, and let me know when your baby arrives or when you plan to go into labor. This helps me prepare to be with you when you return home from the hospital or when you're ready for my assistance.
Step 5: Always Here for You
Feel free to reach out with any questions or if you need support or advice anytime via text or email. I'm here to provide guidance and assistance throughout your journey (:
