Find Doula Jobs in Bowen Island, BC

Lord willing, I will give birth to our third-born this October in Langley, BC, canada. I plan to give birth at my parents little cottage at the back of their property. Our estimated budget is up to $3,000 cad, which would provide prenatal care from around 26 weeks until I birth the baby, and then up until six weeks after. Id love two home visits after the birth, and would expect one visit for sure! Our birth plan is essentially to water birth the baby at home, potentially outdoors in the rain!!! (Weather permitting). Id love to have our two older babies present at the birth. They’re currently 2years2 months and 8 months old! Id like mainly hands off monitoring /observing and to mostly be left alone (I think) and to be in the zone and be able to focus!
