Find Birth Doula Jobs Near Bossier City, LA

1- hospital birth accompanied by my OB 2- Fully covered by my insurance preferably. My Tricare plan covers up to 6 hours prior to birth and one visit during l&d. 3- I’m wanting to try for a Vbac and labor unmedicated for the majority of labor, but am open to/considering an epidural once active labor occurs. I had an emergency induction with my first pregnancy at 35 weeks due to cholestasis, and ended up having an emergency c-section as well due to failure to progress and concerns of fetal distress by my OB. It was an incredibly traumatic experience that I’m hoping to avoid this time around. My main goal is to use the least amount of medical intervention possible.

I plan to give birth at Willis-Knighton Pierremont hospital and am currently 8 months pregnant with a high-risk pregnancy, due around May 20. I am looking for a compassionate and experienced doula to support me during labor and delivery, as well as some postpartum support. I have Medicaid and a limited budget of about $85 per week, but I am open to working with someone who offers flexible pricing, payment plans, or sliding scale options. My children’s father is involved, but he is a truck driver and is not always available, so I am looking for reliable support—especially in the birthing room. It’s important to me to have someone present who can advocate for me, keep me calm, and guide me through labor. After delivery, I would also appreciate some daytime support between 9 AM and 6 PM with newborn care (feeding, soothing, monitoring) and light help around the home while I recover. I am looking for someone patient, understanding, and experienced with high-risk pregnancies who truly cares about mothers and babies.

I am interested in seeking out and using a doula for my birth. This is new to me! This isn’t second pregnancy and I had preeclampsia and had to be induced (not fun). I’m currently taking baby aspirin to hopefully reduce my chances. I’ve thought about and considered not getting an epidural. I’m scared but think it would help my chances of not tearing (also miserable). I want to be educated and learn different things than what I did the first time. I will give birth in a hospital. I have no idea how much that costs and if insurance covers that or not.

I want an atmosphere that’s calm, no bright overhead lights.
