VBAC

Doula?

I am looking to try for a vbac in August , but think I could really benefit from a doula. Can anyone give me a idea of what it costs?  I'm sure they all differ, but I'm just looking for a range.

 

TIA

Re: Doula?

  • They really do range -  in Dallas in 2009 I paid $800 for an experienced doula.

  • I paid $700 in Ann Arbor, MI for a doula with 5+ years experience four years ago, and then $1000 in Chicago for one with 15+ experience, who was also almost done with midwifery school.

    This is a good place to start: https://doulamatch.net/

    Set up some interviews, ask around or look on your local ICAN mailing list if you have one. The price really depends on experience and where you live.

  • I'm in NB Canada and the average here seems to be about $600. But it also depends what you hire them to do, pre natal, post natal, during labor, only during, only before and during..
