What’s Included?

  • From the time you sign your contract, I’m your doula! I’m available for text and phone calls any time. I’m excited to stay connected through your pregnancy and hear updates! In early labor, I’m your go-to person, staying up to date until you need my extra support.

  • Birth is unpredictable, and sometimes it takes a lot of time and energy to bring a baby into the world! I place no restrictions or extra fees on my time with you at your birth. I go on call for you at 37 weeks gestation, and I will join you whenever you decide you need my help. If your baby is born before 37 weeks, I won’t let you birth alone! I will be there as quickly as I can, and if I’m not available, I will send a back up!

  • As an experienced parent, you get access to “all the extras” in our Little Blooming Warriors catalog of classes.

    These include:

    1st, 2nd, and 3rd Trimester Workshops

    The Complete 4th Trimester Workshop

    Balanced Babes: Optimal Fetal Positioning Workshop

    “So There’s Going to be a Baby” Class for siblings ages 4 and up!

    Hypnobabes: Relaxation and Hypnosis for Childbirth

    Infant Sleep Workshop

  • With two intentional, personal visits in your home, I get to know you as a family, discuss your priorities, hopes, concerns, and dreams for this birth experience. We will talk about birth plans, what you can expect from my doula care, and what you can expect from care at your birth place.

  • I remain with you for 2-3 hours after birth, making sure you, your partner, and baby are all settled in. We will do some quick birth debriefing, ooh and ahh over your new baby, and I will help get baby introduced to the breast before I head home.

  • Birth can be such a whirlwind, and I love to bring a meal and sit down to help you and your partner tell your birth story. We will schedule this visit at your convenience, usually 1-2 weeks postpartum.

What clients have to say

We loved Madeline immediately. She is an excellent listener, very knowledgeable, and has great emotional intelligence. Our very shy daughter loved Madeline too and would like us to have another baby so she can see Madeline again.

Both my husband and I go with our initial gut feelings & roll with it. Meeting Madeline via FaceTime (due to being in another state at the time), her calm presence and confidence in birth were what drew me to her immediately. She has a passion for pregnancy and birth, clearly loves her role as a doula and her energy is contagious. My husband was drawn to Madeline with the best one liner of “You and I work together to best support her (me). You know her, I know birth.” He immediately felt like he was important and heard but also had the support we both would need. Madeline is our doula for life.
