I'm working with the Midwife Clinic at Marin Health and plan to give birth at Marin Health. I'm interested in what is covered with my insurance! I'm most interested in postpartum help (night especially but day would be great too.) I'm also interested in a doula for the birth, if it is partly/mostly covered. I have a 3 year old and live with my son, husband, and bernedoodle in San Francisco.

We're first-time parents expecting identical twin girls this fall and looking for an experienced doula to support us through this unique and beautiful journey! About our pregnancy: We're expecting dichorionic diamniotic (DCDA) twins with a due date of October 3, 2026. We'll most likely be delivering at Sutter Medical Center in Downtown Sacramento in the OR, as is standard for twin birth. Our birth plan is still taking shape, but we just want to feel safe and supported every step of the way. What we're looking for: Postpartum support is our biggest priority. Twin newborns are a full-time adventure so we want someone experienced with twins and supporting parents of newborn twins! Birth support is also important to us, and we'd love someone who is comfortable in an OR setting and familiar with both vaginal twin deliveries and C-sections (planned or emergency). About us: We're an AAPI family who practices Buddhism, though we welcome doulas of all backgrounds and beliefs. We're also both in the medical field so we're no strangers to clinical settings. That said, we're still first-time parents navigating something entirely new, and we'd love a doula who can be our advocate, translate the emotional side of this experience, and bring a calm, grounding presence when things get busy. Our requirements: - Certified doula with at least 5 years of experience - Experience supporting twin pregnancies and births - Comfortable with OR/hospital births and C-sections - In-network with United Healthcare (through GEHA) — this is a must for our insurance coverage - Budget: up to $1,000 (our insurance plan maximum for doula services) - Located in or serving the Sacramento, CA area If this sounds like a great fit, we'd love to connect and learn more about you and your approach. Thank you for the incredible work you do! 🌸
Hello, My name is Shanya Prasad, and I am reaching out to inquire about your postpartum doula services. I recently gave birth to my son on June 20 and am looking for support as I navigate the postpartum period following a traumatic and unexpected birth experience. I would also appreciate guidance with breastfeeding, as it has been a significant challenge for me. I wanted to ask if you are currently accepting new postpartum clients and whether you have any availability in the coming weeks. If so, I would love to learn more about your services and how you might be able to support me during this time. Thank you for your time and consideration. I look forward to hearing from you. Warmly, Shanya Prasad

Looking for short term doula (1 week or less) must be in network with United
We would like to find providers to help with any postpartum needs for me (mom) and my family (dad and two older kids). These could include helping us overnight with feedings as well as assistance for me during the day when I'm home alone with the baby, including cleaning, cooking, laundry and other household necessities.
1. Provider Requirements I am looking for a professional overnight postpartum doula or newborn care specialist. The provider must hold an active doula or newborn care certification from a recognized certifying body (such as DONA, CAPPA, or ProDoula) and have a minimum of two years of professional experience. They must also maintain active CPR/Basic Life Support certification covering infant and pediatric care, carry active professional liability insurance, and be registered with TrustLine (or willing to undergo a comprehensive background check with verifiable references). The provider must be fully up-to-date on all standard vaccinations, including TDAP, MMR, and the seasonal flu vaccine. Preference will be given to providers who are fluent in Mandarin as a second language, and who hold additional credentials in infant feeding support (such as a Certified Lactation Counselor or equivalent experience). 2. Care Recipient Details The care recipient will be our first baby (a newborn). As first-time parents, we are looking for a reliable, nurturing professional to manage typical nighttime care. The baby will require standard newborn care throughout the night, including timed or on-demand feedings, soothing, and diaper changes. 3. Additional Duties The primary focus is overnight infant care and implementing healthy, gentle sleep-shaping habits (focusing on evidence-based soothing rather than rigid sleep training). Additional duties include light, baby-related household tasks directly tied to nighttime operations, specifically washing, sterilizing, and prepping bottles and pump parts so they are entirely ready for the next day. 4. Estimated Budget Our estimated total budget for this postpartum support is $15,000. 5. Insurance and Benefits Provider We do not expect traditional medical insurance to cover this care. Instead, this will be funded and processed via our Carrot Fertility employer-sponsored benefit program. We will require the selected provider or agency to be registered (or willing to register) in the Carrot provider database, and to supply clear, itemized invoices/superbills featuring their formal certification number so we can seamlessly submit them for reimbursement or utilize our Carrot Card."
Looking for a night doula/NCS for July 27, 2026. Target schedule is 4 nights a week, 8 hours.
