How Much Does a Birth or Postpartum Doula Cost in Norfolk, VA?

I have been working in the perinatal support field since July 2020 as a breastfeeding peer counselor and then as a birth doula. My own experiences with birth and breastfeeding led me to birth work—I was inspired to support others the way I had been supported. Birth and parenthood has a way of helping us discover strengths we didn't know we had. It is the greatest honor of my life to help my clients find their own strength along their unique journey into parenthood.

I love to serve and educate women during their journey into motherhood. I am a good listener, and I will be your biggest encourager.

My name is Jasmine, but many know me as Jas the Doula. I am a mama of two and I have a passion for women's health. In my spare time I am heavily involved in the community spreading awareness on the benefits of doulas and advocating for high quality care. I have spent nearly 6 years of my career case managing pregnant and postpartum women and providing ongoing education, resources, and encouragement through a prominent health plan in the Tidewater region. Additionally, I am a state-certified doula accepting Medicaid insurance and out-of-pocket payment plans. I have obtained my doula certification through Birth in Color RVA, a bachelor's degree in health services management from Norfolk State University and a masters degree in healthcare delivery science from Eastern Virginia Medical School. My focus is on prenatal, labor & delivery, postpartum and pregnancy loss support. As your doula, I will work with you to release any present fears, anxieties or previous birth traumas, help you plan and find the resources and providers for your ideal birth, help you create a birth plan to communicate your needs to providers, provide education on comfort measures, birthing positions and pain relief options for labor and birth, as well as assist with initiating breastfeeding within the first hour postpartum. I will remain connected with you up to two months postpartum, providing a total of four in-home visits to assist with newborn care, education and safety. I will also assist you with connecting to postpartum supports such as support groups, therapist, lactation consultants, pelvic floor specialist and more!

We are a mother daughter team working together to support families during the transition to life with a new baby.

Hi I’m Jahlai! I am a Postpartum Nurse, a Certified Labor and Postpartum Doula. I offer Childbirth Education, Placenta Encapsulation, Breastmilk/Keepsake Jewelry, and Belly Binding. Helping Expecting families with their parenthood journey is my passion.

As a doula, I believe in supporting the birthing person and their partner(s)/birth team wholeheartedly without judgment. Everyone has a birth journey unique to them and I'm honored every time I get to join a family on that journey.

As a doula, I will offer emotional, physical, and informational support, helping to alleviate the fears, anxieties, and traumas that often accompany pregnancy and childbirth. I will advocate for their autonomy, dignity, and human rights, ensuring that their voices are amplified and their choices respected. My goal is not only to provide exceptional care but also to help dismantle the systemic barriers that perpetuate health inequities. I believe that every Black woman deserves to experience a positive, transformative birth experience that leaves her feeling empowered, confident, and connected to her body and her baby.

As a nurturing and experienced childcare provider with a decade of experience, I'm passionate about fostering the growth and development of children. My patient and friendly nature, coupled with creativity and imagination, allows me to connect with children on their level, making their days filled with joy and learning. I prioritize open communication with parents, providing daily written reports and regular updates to ensure a collaborative caregiving experience. I'm comfortable following the household rules set by parents and am always willing to go the extra mile, be it cooking, light housekeeping, or engaging in crafts. With First Aid and CPR training under my belt, I ensure a safe environment for the children in my care. I have a car, so outings and adventures are always a possibility. Caring for children is not just a job for me; it's a way to positively impact their lives and support families. I am currently taking a postpartum doula course. I look forward to the opportunity to be a part of your family's journey.

As a postpartum doula, newborn care specialist, and night nanny, my role is to provide calm, knowledgeable, and compassionate support to your family during the early weeks and months after your baby arrives. Whether you're recovering from birth, navigating feeding challenges, or simply adjusting to your new routine, I’m here to help ease that transition. I offer hands-on assistance with newborn care, emotional support for parents, guidance on infant sleep and feeding, and evidence-based answers to your questions—all with a gentle, nonjudgmental approach tailored to your family’s unique needs and values. During overnight shifts, I help ensure both baby and parents get the rest they need. While you sleep, I care for your baby—handling feedings, diaper changes, soothing, and monitoring—so you can wake up feeling more rested and ready for the day. My goal is to nurture your confidence as parents while providing practical, reliable care so you feel supported, empowered, and less overwhelmed in this tender time. Whether you need a few nights of rest or ongoing support, I’m here to walk alongside you with knowledge, compassion, and respect.

My name is Angie, I am a mother of two amazing boys, a surrogate mother, and a Christ-centered doula. To me being a doula is far from just a job. It is a ministry. My goal is to not only help my clients have wonderful birth experiences but to also shower them in love and support.

I am a local to Virginia Beach, and although I plan to stay here long term, my heart also has a home in Hawaii where I spent a few years in my twenties. I love to adventure, design, have community and learn new things! I spend 100% of the time being a mother to two absolutely, wildly amazing children, and being a wife to my long-time sweet heart. I have had beautiful home births with both my children and I would love to have more children! My dream is grow a business that not only supports my family, but over all, supports woman and families all of the world so that we as mothers and as families feel the most confident and empowered that we have ever felt as a community, so that we raise generations of parents and children to be self-sufficient, self-thinkers and rooted in love.

As Dominique— I live for mommy and daughter dates, iced oat milk lattes, home cooked meals, 70’s soul music, and the sound of ocean waves. As a doula— I live for a grounded, confident, SUPPORTED, and informed client. I am a firm believer that birth should NOT be a traumatic experience. I’m also a firm believer that a well watered mama increases the likelihood of a healthy and happy baby. A doula’s role is to support both mother and child. Together we’ll explore mindfulness techniques, comfort measures, and ensure your toolkit is well equipped for a positive birthing experience. I am happy to discuss breastfeeding techniques, to create a postpartum game plan, to provide herbal teas and natural remedies, to offer customizable meal plans, and to help you design a birth plan. I look forward to supporting you on this journey to parenthood! Let’s connect!
