My experience working with Kaitlyn and her team was amazing. From our introductory call, I felt like I could trust Kaitlyn and once she matched me with my amazing doula, I felt relief knowing I was prepared for my postpartum. I highly recommend you work with Queen City Doulas!

Frequently asked questions

What sets Queen City Doulas apart from other doula agencies?

At Queen City Doulas, we understand that you're approaching a transformative moment in your life, and our goal is to make this experience as nurturing and supportive as possible. Here’s how we do things differently: Personalized Doula Matching: Our founder, Kaitlyn, personally meets with all prospective clients to understand your needs and preferences. She carefully matches each client with the most suitable doula from our team, ensuring a perfect fit for your family. High Standards, Exceptional Care: We maintain high standards for professionalism and empathy, which means we selectively choose our team members. Though we may not be the largest agency, we are confident that each of our doulas is exceptional in their dedication and skill. Immediate and Continuous Support: Once matched, we put you in direct contact with your doula, ensuring you know exactly who will be supporting you right from the start. Accessible Expertise: Beyond your personal doula, you have a whole team backing you. Kaitlyn remains actively involved and is always available for additional support. Her extensive experience in neonatal intensive care, pediatric primary care, and as a Radical Birth Keeper provides a wealth of knowledge to help guide new mothers. At Queen City Doulas, we are committed to making you feel loved and cared for every step of the way. We're not just a service; we're a community.

Do you accept employee benefits (ex. Carrot, Maven, Progyny) for postpartum care?

Yes, we work with employee benefits from programs like Carrot Fertility, Maven Fertility, and Progyny Fertility. Eligibility and reimbursement requirements vary by employer and benefit provider, and we can help you navigate these options.

Can I pay with my Health Savings Account (HSA) or Flexible Savings Account (FSA)?

Yes!

When should I book doula services?

We recommend booking as early as possible to ensure you receive the best possible support tailored to your needs. Our doulas are in high demand, and we operate on a first-come, first-served basis. Here’s a quick guide to help you decide when to book: As Soon As Possible: If you know you want doula support, it’s wise to book early. This is especially important if you have specific requirements, such as working with a Registered Nurse or a Newborn Care Specialist. Flexible Options: If you are more flexible regarding the qualifications of your doula, you may have a bit more leeway. However, all of our doulas are exceptional, and they become fully booked around popular due dates, especially by the second trimester. Reach out anytime: Never hesitate to reach out even if your baby is already here! The birth world is unpredictable and we may have availability for exactly the support or referral you need.
