Mountain Birth Stories Doula Services
What is a Doula at Mountain Birth Stories?
A doula is a caring, knowledgeable, and experienced support person who educates the birthing mother and her support person on what to expect through pregnancy, labor, and postpartum. I will help you with coping strategies, positioning, postpartum planning, and support during the postpartum period. I will walk alongside you and your support person from the moment you hire me till 6 weeks postpartum and beyond if you wish!
-
Benee would be your doula. I have years of experience in the birth space, but I am new to the support role. I am a Washington State-certified Doula who accepts Medicaid! You can read more about me in the “About Me” tab
-
I will provide you with 2 prenatal meetings, extensive birth support, and postpartum support.
-
You can hire a doula as early as you want! I suggest you interview doulas to pick a doula that’s right for you, and then pick one by 28-30 weeks of gestation to have enough time for prenatal meetings.

Birth Doula Pricing
$700
Your experience with giving birth is absolutely worth the investment. A healthy baby is a good outcome, but a healthy mom and an experience void of trauma is also extremely important. Your birth story directly impacts postpartum and future birthing experiences. Invest in your birthing education and support. A doula has been proven to help you achieve positive birthing outcomes!
I also accept Medicaid (Apple Health) in the state of Washington.
Postpartum Doula Pricing
$250
This is for the moms who maybe didn’t plan ahead and feel like they need more support after birth. Maybe breastfeeding isn’t going as easily as you planned. Maybe you just didn’t know enough about what to expect and feel like you’re drowning. Maybe you need newborn sleep help or advice on how to manage two kids at once!
Or maybe you’re planning ahead and already know you’ll need some extra support after birth!
This includes 1.5 hours of in-person support:
Breastfeeding support
Light housework (dishes, a load of laundry, folding laundry, picking up toys)
Older child entertainment
Holding or feeding baby while you catch a nap or shower
Newborn sleep advice
Add an extra postpartum visit to your Birth Doula Package for $150.
