Looking for an inexpensive doula

Hey, I'm looking for an inexpensive doula or someone that has just finished training and needs experience. They don't necessarily need to be certified through DONA. The doulas I have checked out are way out of my price range :(

Any recommendations?

    I know UCSD has a volunteer doula service for their patients, maybe they can help you in your search? I think the volunteer doula service is called hearts & hands(?) should be easy enough to look up.

     

    Hope that helps a little, and you find a wonderful doula.

    Thanks for the tip. I've already looked into them and they don't offer their services to women outside the hospital/birthing center. I'll be giving birth at Best Start. Thanks again.

    I may know of someone in Oceanside - I'm not sure if her prices have changed or not.  She was going to be our doula, but when your labor ends up being 3 hours there sometimes isn't time for those things. ;)  She was the doula for another couple in my Bradley class and the sister of a girl in the same class.

    Check out my girlfriends website: https://embracinglabor.com/

    She often has new doulas that are willing to work for cheaper rates to get their experience up. Send her a message and I am sure she can point you in the right direction!

     Good Luck!

    Check out Betsy at https://justdoulait.com/. She taught our Bradley Method classes and was just fabulous!
