Beautiful Birth Doula Package $1200
We begin our journey together with a free consultation. My goal is to hear your hopes, dreams & desires for your birth experience and to hear about any questions or apprehensions you may have. I always share some resources on birth that will benefit you and your spouse. Then, if you reserve me for your due date, we begin our journey together. I view us as a birth team. Your husband knows you best, I know birth. I walk with you both along the pregnancy journey, providing resources, videos and answering questions especially around your monthly appointments. I offer an in-depth, full prenatal meeting near 32 weeks. This time together will prepare both you and your husband or birth partner for labor, with exercises, labor positions, comfort measures, as well as a birth plan. With education on how to know if you are in labor? When to go to the Birth Center or Hospital or if you are having a homebirth when to call your birth team. We will prepare for the birth experience you envision.
At 38 weeks I am "on-call" and available 24-7 for you. I will join you once your labor is "active" and stay with you until the birth. I also capture your birth story along the way with photos, I love capturing your experience. After baby is born, I will usually stay for an hour helping with initial attachment and breastfeeding. Then, I will visit after your birth usually within the first week to check on breastfeeding and for us all to debrief your entire experience.


Breastfeeding coaching
I am a certified Lamaze breastfeeding counselor. I give you resources to prepare for your breastfeeding journey. I also help with initial breasfeeding within the first hour after the birth. After your birth, I come and visit within those first few days and offer some help with breastfeeding at this post-natal appointment along with a special time to debrief your birth experience.
If you would like to hire me for stand alone Breastfeeding coaching $30/visit some travel fees apply for extra distance
Sometimes life hits us with unexpected health journeys. Two years ago a family member ended up in the hospital. I visited this loved one and put into practice so many of the principles I've learned as a doula. I brought little touches for her room to enhance the atmosphere: a soft fleece blanket, cozy socks, a small christmas tree (yes, it was Christmas time ;) and other basic things to give her joy in her room. From encouraging her to shower, to helping her take small walks, to doing her nails, or taking notes from doctor visits. The impact of having someone who cared in what can be a lonely and scary time, drastically impacted her recovery. If you have a loved one that needs some special doula love specifically during a hospital stay, get in touch for my hourly health visits.

Having Katie and the birth of our 4th baby was one of the best decisions we've ever made! Because of her knowledge, expertise, and heart, I was able to finally get the natural birth that I had always dreamed of. She remains so special to me to this day because of how well she cared for me and helped me labor with strength and concentration. If you're looking to be empowered during labor, and have intentionally thought through what you want your experience to be like - you must have her!

I was so lucky to have Katie as our doula for the birth of our baby girl Eva. The experience was truly amazing, all natural and low stress.
Katie played a huge part in making this happen. It was comforting to benefit from her experience during preparations, and she did an outstanding job making sure our wishes were understood and that we understood what was going on. Most importantly though, she gave me excellent coaching and guidance during labor, creating a positive and humorous atmosphere.
I highly recommend you get in touch with Katie!”

"Our 3rd baby girl joined our family in November. I had never had a doula before, and I'm so glad we asked Katie to join us for Julia's birth! It was most definitely the best decision we could have made! Katie was so encouraging during the weeks leading up to her birth and gave me exercises that I could do for the baby to be in the best position possible. Katie is naturally intuitive, which helped so much during the labor process when I didn't know what I needed. She was a voice for us with the medical staff at the hospital, which was one less thing to worry about! If you desire to have a natural birth, you will be incredibly blessed to have Katie as your doula!

“We were fortunate enough to have Katie attend the birth of our second child last week - it was the best decision we could have made. Katie is knowledgeable, supportive, and calm. She helped give me the confidence I needed to have a natural birth and without her I do not think we would have been able to do it. Leading up to the delivery she recommended great exercises to prepare and for during active labor. She was also readily available to chat up until the labor. Katie gave incredible direction and support during the labor and acted as an advocate in the delivery room making sure I could stay moving as much as possible. She had wonderful techniques to help keep me focused, engage my partner, and keep the labor moving along - and she guided us through it all in such a calm and professional manner. I felt cared for and empowered because of her presence. I highly recommend Katie - she is amazing! Thank you so very much Katie!!”

I am so grateful that I can look back at this birth and feel nothing but joy, and I know that is because Katie was with us.
I cannot more highly recommend her.
