FAQs

Where are you located?

I live in West San Jose, near Cupertino. I am comfortable driving up to ~40 minutes to you.

What is your background/experience?

I grew up in the Sacramento Valley and doula-ed many loved ones through other challenges before being drawn to birth. Last year I completed formal training through DONA International. I am now learning more as the assistant to a skilled midwife. With her I have attended many checkups and a handful of home births so far.

What would you charge?

No more than $400.

What does that fee include?

• Two home visits before your due date, where we will get to know each other and make a plan for me to support you in labor.
• Faithful presence from early labor through the first "golden hour" with baby.
• Another home visit postpartum, to talk about the birth and make sure everyone is doing well.
