  • Postpartum Support | $40/hour

    Nervous about the first bath and fingernail clipping? I got you! In postpartum care I help with all baby related things from laundry, to dishes, to teaching you basic skills to care for your baby. I do a limited amount of postpartum support during daytime hours only. Shifts are typically 4-8 hours Monday through Friday.

  • Childbirth Class | $350

    I am an official Evidence Based Birth Instructor. This 6 week class will teach you everything you need to know to prepare for birth. The flipped classroom format meant you’ll learn via videos before class, and then have expert led instruction and community with other parents during class. The first and last sessions are in person at the Birth Center of Chicago, and the other classes are via zoom.
    This class is discounted for clients who book doula services.

How does this work?

Shoot me an email via my contact page (or just email doulacarlyann@gmail.com). If I’m available, we will schedule a zoom interview to explain the ins and outs of my services.

When you are ready to work with me, a deposit will be required to reserve your spot on my calendar.

After that I am your doula! I will be available for phone/text/email support. Plus we will have 2 prenatal visits and at least one postpartum follow up.

Adjusted rates are available for queer, BIPOC, and low income clients.
