Interview

The interview is the beginning of our relationship, and helps us get to know each other and decide if we are a good match. There is no obligation to continue this relationship after the interview, so feel free to set one up and determine whether I am meant to be your hypno-doula.

 

Prenatal Visits

We will meet together for at least one but potentially two or more visits. The first visit will address the physical and emotional aspects of your birthing time and birth. At the second prenatal, we will work to identify your birth philosophy, your preferences, and your expectations for your birthing time and birth.

Birth Preferences

Your Birth Preferences is a free-form document that we can create together, to communicate your birth preferences to any staff, friends, or family that will be present during your birthing time and birth.

 

Baby Preferences

Your Baby Preferences is also a free-form document that we can create together, to communicate to any staff, friends, or family that will be present immediately after your baby is born.

 

Phone Support

Your third trimester will be a time of questions and anticipation. During this time, I will check in with you by phone each week, offering emotional and informational support, resources and referrals. Please call me at any time with questions or concerns.

 

Your Birth Month

I will be on-call for you 24-hours a day, 7 days a week during your “birth month.” Your birth month begins when you reach 38 weeks gestation and continues until your baby is born. During this time, I will be ready to join you at a moment’s notice whenever your birthing time begins.

 

Birthing Time and Birth

Once you’re in your birthing time, I will support you throughout the entire time, whether it lasts 4 hours or 40 hours. Your care provider may come and go, and your nurses may rotate through shift change, but your hypno-doula will be constant, reassuring presence.

Immediately Postpartum

Typically, I will stay with you and your new family for up to two hours immediately following the birth of your baby. I will help to establish your initial breastfeeding, and insure that mom and baby are feeling comfortable in their first moments together.

 

Postpartum Contact

I will check in with you by phone regularly during your first days at home with your new baby. This provides the opportunity for you to ask any questions that have arisen, reflect upon your birth experiences, and to share the joy of your new family.

Postpartum Visit

I will visit you two times in the postpartum period, usually once in the hospital and then once in your home. This gives us the opportunity to review your birth experience, evaluate my services as your hypno-doula, and resolve any concerns or question you have about your new bundle of joy.

Breastfeeding Support

I will be available for your breastfeeding questions during the first month postpartum. I will be available for phone consultations and home visits to insure that your breastfeeding relationship has a healthy beginning and a promising future.

The interview is the beginning of our relationship, and helps us get to know each other and decide if we are a good match. There is no obligation to continue this relationship after the interview, so feel free to set one up and determine whether I am meant to be your hypno-doula.
