Homebirth Support
A homebirth is when a mother gives birth to her unborn child outside of the hospital or birth center. This can be done in the comfort of their own home, a family member's home or any location they feel safe and supported. For-medical care the mom will be serviced by a midwife, either a CNM (certified nurse midwife) or a CPM (certified professional midwife). Whoever is chosen is based on preface and when supported by one or the other there is usually no need for an OBGYN. A lot midwives that support homebirths require their patients to hire a doula to fill in the support that they know that they will not be able to provide.
Please understand that a doula does not take the roll of a midwife and will not perform any medical duties.

Inverstment: $1300
Within my two year span of being a doula, I have supported 30 plus families (and still counting) where all but one have been in the hospital, but I have gotten to the point where I really feel like the empath in me really wants to support families that want to give birth in their home. Because I am fully aware that this is not the smoothest transition I have partnered with Blue Moon Doula to mentor me and help guide me to provide the best support.
