Doula Services In Philadelphia, PA and South Jersey
Payment of Services
The prices below reflect how much the services are worth. I offer payment plans and services on a sliding scale for those who need it. I also offer a reduced rated for postpartum doula support for those who qualify for PA / NJ Medicaid. I am contracted with the Maternity Care Coalition's Community Doula program that can match families to doula services with no cost to them.
Additionally, I am NJ Medicaid doula provider and can currently accept the following insurance plans in New Jersey FOR BIRTH DOULA SERVICES ONLY:
