Find Doula Jobs in Gainesville, FL

We would prefer a provider who is a Certified Postpartum Doula (CPD), Newborn Care Specialist (NCS), Registered Nurse (RN), or Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN), with at least 3-5 years of experience caring for newborns and postpartum mothers. Infant CPR and First Aid certification are required. Experience supporting breastfeeding mothers, bottle feeding, establishing healthy sleep habits, soothing newborns, and recognizing signs of postpartum recovery concerns is highly preferred. A non-smoker with excellent references and a clean background check is required. Our daughter is a healthy newborn with no special medical needs. Responsibilities would include feeding support, diaper changes, burping, soothing, swaddling, monitoring sleep, washing and sterilizing bottles and pump parts, keeping the nursery organized, and maintaining a clean environment related to the baby’s care. We would also appreciate light household assistance related to the baby and postpartum recovery, such as folding baby laundry, changing crib sheets, tidying the nursery, preparing simple meals or snacks, and helping keep common areas neat. Sleep guidance and establishing healthy newborn routines would be a wonderful bonus. We are looking for someone who is warm, dependable, professional, and respectful of our parenting preferences while offering guidance when appropriate. We would love to begin with a one-week trial period to ensure we are a great fit for one another before moving forward with an ongoing schedule. We are looking for care a few days per week, with scheduling primarily between Sunday evening and Friday morning. Our starting budget is $30-$40per hour, depending on qualifications, certifications, and experience. We are open to discussing higher rates for a Registered Nurse, Newborn Care Specialist, or someone with extensive postpartum experience.

I’m currently 6 months pregnant with my first baby and I’m very excited. I have been getting care with the OBGYN but I’m yet to still have met with my actual docotor. I’ve only seen students and residents and have no relationship built with my doctor who is supposed to assist me in birth. As a woman delivering for the first time I would like a more personal experience and get to know who would be assisting me on a personal level. Overall I’ve been disappointed with the OBGYN care I’ve received and decided to try out your midwife program instead! I’m looking to give birth in the hospital rather than a home birth but would like to receive the at home midwife care and make a personal connection and learn more about childbirth.

I’m a first time mom planning a birth center delivery and want emotional and physical support. My budget is around $1k

1. Home 2. Insurance (sunshine health LTC) 3. At home medical and emotional services

I believe I have to give birth at the hospital as I’ve had a c-section (followed by a successful VBAC). I would like to labor as little as possible in the hospital. My goal is to utilize more laboring positions/techniques for a natural birth if possible to do so.

Uhmmm lol, this would be my first time seeing a midwife/ receiving doula support. I apologize for not necessarily being able to identify or list my current needs.
