Find Doula Jobs in Cranston, RI

Where do you plan to give birth (home/hospital)? Hospital — Rhode Island Hospital in Providence, RI. I am interested in using the Alternative Birthing Center (ABC) room if I remain eligible. Estimated Budget: To be determined based on the doula’s experience, services included, prenatal support, labor support, and postpartum availability. Describe your birth plan: I am planning a midwife-led hospital birth with an OB available if medically necessary. My goal is to have an unmedicated, low-intervention vaginal birth and use the Alternative Birthing Center at Rhode Island Hospital if I remain eligible. I would like freedom of movement during labor and want to use different positions, breathing techniques, massage, counter-pressure, hydrotherapy/water labor, and other non-medication comfort measures. I want a calm, supportive environment where my preferences are respected while still having immediate access to medical care if complications arise. I am looking for a doula who will provide continuous emotional and physical support throughout labor, help me advocate for my birth preferences, explain options when appropriate, and work collaboratively and respectfully with my midwife, nurses, and medical team. I also want my partner to be actively involved and would like the doula to help guide and support my partner during labor rather than replace their role. Provider Requirements: I am looking for a birth doula who: * Is professionally trained/certified through a reputable doula organization * Has significant experience supporting hospital births * Has experience supporting physiologic/unmedicated births and low-intervention birth plans * Is comfortable supporting water labor * Is familiar with Rhode Island Hospital and its policies/Alternative Birthing Center, preferably with previous experience attending births there * Is comfortable working alongside midwives and OBs * Supports evidence-based care and informed decision-making * Has experience with comfort measures, positioning, breathing techniques, massage, counter-pressure, and labor progression * Has a reliable backup doula arrangement * Is available for prenatal preparation and continuous labor support * Is supportive and nonjudgmental if my birth plan needs to change for medical or personal reasons Spanish-speaking would be a plus, but it is not required. Details About Care Recipient: This is for birth support for me during pregnancy, labor, and delivery. I am expecting one baby. I am primarily seeking prenatal and labor/birth doula support rather than newborn childcare. I would also appreciate some initial postpartum guidance related to recovery, newborn adjustment, and feeding. I plan to discuss my feeding preferences and goals with the doula during our consultation. Additional Duties: My primary need is birth support. I am not currently looking for the doula to provide regular housekeeping, cooking, laundry, or sleep-training services. I would value: * Prenatal birth-preparation sessions * Help refining my birth preferences/birth plan * Labor positioning and comfort techniques * Continuous support during labor and delivery * Guidance for my partner on how to support me * Early postpartum check-in/support * Basic breastfeeding/feeding support or referrals when appropriate * Help connecting me with additional postpartum or lactation resources if needed

I am looking for a doula to support me during my upcoming hospital birth at Milford Hospital. This will be my fourth baby, but my boyfriend’s first, so I’m hoping to find someone who can provide guidance and support for both of us throughout the experience. Ideally, I would love to have an unmedicated birth, but I’m also open to being flexible depending on how things progress. My biggest priorities are finding someone who can help me with pain management techniques, advocate for my preferences, and assist with communication between myself and the medical team, especially during moments when I may be too overwhelmed or in too much pain to effectively communicate. Ultimately, I’m hoping to create as calm, positive, and stress-free of a birth experience as possible, while feeling supported and confident in the decisions being made along the way.
