Find Postpartum Doula Jobs Near Leduc, AB

I plan to give birth at the Evanston NorthShore Labor/Delivery Hospital. I am on Medicaid but I wouldn’t want to spend more than 300$ out of pocket. I want to birth as natural as possible, I wouldn’t want an epidural unless it really comes down to it. I would want to avoid any cutting or tearing in my vagina. I’d like to push out naturally rather than get a C- section.

Hi! I wanted to share a little about the support I’m hoping for during labor. I’d really like to try for an unmedicated birth if possible, so having help with breathing, positioning, and counter pressure during contractions would mean a lot. My priorities are being able to move freely, delivering in the position I choose, delayed cord clamping, and keeping interventions minimal if everything is safe. I’d also love a calm, dark, peaceful environment. My pregnancy has IUGR, so there’s a chance I may need to deliver earlier than expected. I’m hoping for someone who can support me emotionally, help advocate for me if needed, and also guide my partner on how he can best support me during labor. I’m planning to use Medicaid/Blue Cross Community if possible, and I also wanted to ask if it would be possible to be matched with a Caucasian doula for my own comfort. Thank you! 🤍

This is my second child, my first will be 4 by the time baby arrives. Had a very hard postpartum with my first and want this time to be different and hope to avoid severe postpartum mental health by getting the assistance of a doula during birth and a night doula postpartum for a few days a week for the first weeks. I plan to give birth at a hospital. I had an epidural with my first and likely will with this one but would like to try to labor without for a bit so I can be mobile.

I am currently expecting my first child with a due date of April 26, and we are looking for a Postpartum Night Doula to support us during the initial weeks. Our primary goal is to have professional overnight care for our newborn so that we can focus on recovery and rest. We are currently looking for approximately 60–70 hours of total support. Additionally, our insurance (through Qualcomm) provides a $3,000 Doula benefit. We are looking for a partner who can provide the necessary documentation for reimbursement. Familiarity with the Qualcomm (UnitedHealthcare) claims process would be a significant plus. Before scheduling a formal interview, I would appreciate it if you could provide some information regarding the following: 1. Professional Experience & Care Overnight Experience: Could you share your experience specifically as a "Night Doula"? How do you typically support first-time parents in maximizing their rest? Safety (SIDS): Are you trained in and familiar with Safe Sleep Guidelines? How do you monitor the baby’s safety during your shift? Education & Coaching: Are you able to provide guidance on newborn care, such as breastfeeding support or infant bathing? 2. Communication & Administration Communication Style: How do you typically communicate updates to parents? (e.g., overnight logs, shift summaries, or daily reports?) Insurance Documentation: Can you provide detailed receipts or invoices for insurance reimbursement (including an NPI number or specific service codes if applicable)? Back-up Plan: In the event of an emergency or illness, do you have a back-up Doula who can cover your shifts? 3. Rates & Policies Rates & Deposit: What is your hourly rate, and do you require a deposit to secure the dates? Flexibility: Given that birth dates can be unpredictable, what is your policy regarding a baby arriving earlier or later than the due date? What is your cancellation policy? If you are available during late April and May, please let me know. If your background aligns with our needs, we would love to schedule a video call or an in-person meeting to discuss further. Thank you!

1. prentice, Northwestern. 2. Insurance covered? 3. Second baby boy. Low stress birth plan.

I am looking for a postpartum doula to help me manage my newborn baby's needs. I don't have family in the area and my husband has returned to work and it's challenging for me to keep up with the household and support feeding baby (breastfeeding with supplementation and pumping) regularly because after 2 weeks my baby has not yet gotten back to his birth weight. Help with cooking would also be great. If the doula is covered in-network by my insurance (BCBS PPO) that would be helpful.

I plan to give birth at Advocate Illinois Masonic Medical Center. I am looking for a supportive and experienced midwife who can help guide me through a natural birth. My goal is to have as natural of a labor and delivery as possible, using breathing techniques, movement, and positioning to manage pain. Medical interventions would be my last resort, but I understand they may be necessary if there are safety concerns for me or my baby. I would like someone who is patient, encouraging, and communicates well so I feel supported and calm throughout the process. My budget is flexible depending on the services provided.
