Hospital birth Support during and after pregnancy
I am planning to give birth at home, in Dublin California. I’m mainly looking for a midwife and possibly a doula for support. I am planning to use my insurance at Kaiser for my scans up through the third trimester, and mainly want the midwife and possible doula team for delivery. I imagine visiting with them beforehand, but relying on my insurance for everything else leading up to delivery. Budget is $5k or less I want to give birth at home, unmedicated, with minimal interventions.

Hi! I hope you're doing well. I'm currently looking for a birth doula for my upcoming delivery and came across your profile. My first birth was a difficult and traumatic experience, so this time I'm hoping to approach birth with more support, preparation, and a greater sense of confidence. I'm looking for a doula who can provide a calming presence, thoughtful guidance, and strong advocacy throughout labor and birth. I'd love to learn more about your approach, your availability, and what it's like to work with you. If it seems like we might be a good fit, I'd be grateful to connect. Thank you for your time, and I look forward to hearing from you.
Hi, my name is Somya. I’m currently expecting my first baby, and this journey has already been incredibly meaningful and emotional for me. I’m someone who likes to be prepared, informed, and calm — especially during important life events. I value warmth, reassurance, and clear communication. While I try to stay strong and composed, I can sometimes feel anxious when things feel uncertain. In those moments, I appreciate gentle grounding, positive affirmation, and someone who can help me slow down and breathe. This pregnancy is very special to me. I’ve been looking forward to motherhood with excitement, but also with a natural mix of nervousness about labor and delivery. My goal is to have a positive, empowering birth experience where I feel supported, heard, and safe.
I am giving birth at a hospital and would like to have a natural birth without an epidural if possible. I want to have the freedom to move around and walk, stretch, shower to distract my mind versus being stuck to the bed after a shot. I would like to support in what moves and stretches to achieve this goal.

Plan to give birth at hospital. Looking for a birth doula currently
San Ramon Regional Hospital, $2-3K Birth Plan TBD
We plan to give birth at a hospital (Kaiser in Redwood City). I'm looking for options that will be 100% covered by our Kaiser health insurance. My birth plan is flexible. Ideally I would prefer an unmedicated VBAC birth, but is flexible if induction or C-section is required. Would be helpful to have a doula that is also well-versed in sleep training. My first required 100% contact naps until they were sleep trained at 5 months old. I have Kaiser HMO
I am looking for a doula that can support me during birth and postpartum. I am located in Alameda and will likely be giving birth at the San Leandro Kaiser or Oakland Kaiser if I find the right doula. I currently have Kaiser and have confirmed that my insurance does cover doula support. I plan on birthing at the hospital, and I will be using pain medication to support me. I'm mostly looking for advocacy due to a traumatic birth experience at Kaiser Oakland, where they kept trying to push a C-section and tore my water without consent.
Reaching out to see if you have availability to support our due date: July 30th, 2026. We are planning for an unmedicated hospital birth at Kaiser Oakland and are interested in in-person doula support. It’s our first baby! We’re hoping for support in preparing thoughtful and flexible birth preferences ahead of time, comfort and education throughout labor/birth, helping to hold our birth plan with the medical team during labor/birth, and guiding us through the unpredictability of labor so we can stay present with eachother/body/baby and make informed decisions as they come. Also curious about your openness to capture photo/video during birth. We are also interested in postpartum support, though we’re still learning and exploring what might be most resourcing, but are especially interested in breastfeeding support, settling into life at home, and support with my physical recovery. Curious about meal support in the first week. We’d love to learn more about Your availability to support a July 30th due date Confirmation that you would be available to support in-person for labor and birth Back-up plan/support if the baby comes earlier/later than due date, if you happen to be unavailable Confirmation that the doula is contracted directly with Kaiser Out of pocket cost(s) and reimbursement/billing process using Kaiser insurance If it feels aligned, we’d be happy to set up a time to connect by phone. We look forward to hearing from you! Warmly, Haley & Jesse (502)-387-9490
