I will be giving birth at United Hospital. I have health partners insurance through the state, so any services would need to be covered by insurance. I am hoping for as natural of a birth as possible with as few interventions as possible however, I am a high risk pregnancy due to type one diabetes. (my diabetes is decently well controlled and is not the same as type two diabetes.) I had a lot of trauma from my last birthing experience, I didn’t know my rights and the doctors were VERY controlling and even forceful with me.

Looking for a postpartum doula for nights to help support parents getting sleep and care and sleep success for newborn

I plan to give birth at Abbott Northwestern. This is my second child, my first was born at Regions which was a 30+ hour labor including PPH. I am hoping for a smoother experience and less anxiety this time! I'd like to find someone with several years of experience. My husband is a resident physician and it is important to us to find someone who works well with care teams. I am not sure yet about my postpartum doula needs and budget, just thinking I'd like to find help with that too.

Looking for 6-8 hours a week of help at home. This would be on Tuesday ans Wednesdays starting in January. My daughter is 4 months old and my boyfriend and are looking for extra support.

We are looking for a compassionate and knowledgeable doula that can help my husband and I manage house duties and provide information/support regarding feeding, sleep schedule, soothing techniques, etc. We would like an overnight doula to help us with our sleep hygiene. We would ideally like someone who is up to date on evidence based practices.

Hi there! This is a first pregnancy/child for myself and my partner, Charles. Doulas have come highly recommended from family and friends and we look forward to working with one of you! Our main priorities are education and advocacy support. We are both new to this journey and will greatly benefit from open, transparent conversations about our options, items we may not even think to ask about, and creating a plan (plus plans b, c, d and more) that we’re all comfortable with and on the same page about. Prior to this pregnancy, I’ve always been on the “drugs ASAP” train for birth. As I’ve read and started educating myself, I would like evidence-based information on natural births and waiting until 7-8cm before introducing an epidural. My goal is a vaginal birth if it is safe for me and baby and anything to reduce tearing and long-term pain is my preference if possible. I want to give birth in a hospital setting because I feel safest in a setting with all of the medical staff and resources that may be necessary. Regarding advocacy, I am a high risk mama-to-be. I will be 35 when the baby is born, I have a high BMI and I have been a type II diabetic for years. I’m blessed to have a wonderful medical team and support system so my A1c is in the normal range and my other health markers are strong without medication. I imagine it’s beneficial for a potential doula to be aware of those conditions. Charles and I are both black and are well aware of the black maternal death rates during birth. We want to ensure we have an advocate for our comfort and safety, along with the baby’s comfort and safety, when we may not be able to advocate for ourselves. We plan to have the baby at Abbott Northwestern in Minneapolis and would love to take birthing, newborn and postpartum educational classes. My due date is 11/20, but my doctors and midwife have referenced I’ll likely go at 37-39 weeks due to my risk factors. An early-mid November labor is likely. A few fun facts about us! Charles is a high school science teacher and I work in the interior design/color psychology field. We live in a super cute old house in Minneapolis with our two cats. Our hobbies include cooking, traveling and reading. I also love trash reality tv and Charles is a big Dungeons & Dragons nerd. Our nursery artwork will be Pokémon themed 🤣 Hopefully all of that information fulfills the dating-profile-esque matching basics so we can all make an educated decision when considering working together. Really looking forward to connecting and learning!

I have a husband who travels a lot and have been only getting 3-4 hours of sleep per day. I need someone either early mornings or late night. Looking forward to 2 days a week

Nighttime care, help with newborn care overnight, respond to baby/feed/change baby as needed overnight.

Hi Maggie! In my past two births, I’ve experienced long, stalled, painful labors and have needed inductions. Because of that, I’m really looking for strong, hands-on support during labor—especially someone experienced with helping labor progress, using positioning, movement, and comfort techniques. I’m particularly interested in approaches like optimal positioning (Spinning Babies–type techniques), as well as support during longer or induced labors. It’s also important to me that my doula has experience/comfortability supporting diverse families or are mindful of cultural/religious preferences.

Have an 8 mo old right now but I also have a 10 cm fibroid planning to have it surgically removed May 6! Wondering your thoughts on pregnancy afterwards any advice is helpful

certified postpartum doula. little help with cleaning and cooking and taking care of baby

Night Nanny/Postpartum Doula 6Hrs Night 5d/week would like a doula with lots of experience as baby was born premature is currently 19d old and can be slow with feeds and needs lots of patience and sometimes cluster feeds or wants to be held for hours, anything you can get done around the home is helpful as we have other kids , we also have 3cats 1dog , dog will remain crated during stay , budget is 30.00/HR

Starting to tentatively look for doulas for my second birth. I’ve never had a doula before but I’m very interested. I plan to give birth at the Ridgeview birth center in Waconia, MN. My budget can’t go higher than 2k including postpartum packages. I enjoyed a medicated birth with my first baby but wished I could have labored longer before getting the epidural—I had exclusive back labor and it was hard to make any decisions as I couldn’t move without having severe contractions. I’m hoping for a more peaceful second birth where I don’t have to be the most educated advocate in the room (my mom and husband were very supportive but didn’t have any background in back labor). As for postpartum, I’m interested in some form of small support since we’re transitioning to two kids and my first won’t quite be 18 months by my due date for baby #2. It will be a lot!
