Find Birth Doula Jobs Near Sarasota, FL

I’m a late transfer (meeting my OB tomorrow at almost 31 weeks), and the only practice that would take me is the SMH First Physicians Group Pregnancy Center, which delivers at Sarasota Memorial Hospital (yay!) but can’t guarantee who my actual delivery doctor/nurse will be… or even if it’ll be consistent through my remaining prenatal appts. I want someone to be a constant through the end of my pregnancy and delivery, to know my plan, manage the vibes, and advocate for me. I want an unmedicated vaginal birth. I understand that things sometimes derail that plan, but I don’t want intervention to be assumed. I’m willing to pivot for my safety and the baby’s, but I know how doctors and hospitals often jump straight to medical interventions as CYA from liability, and I want someone on my team with the knowledge and empathy to guide the situation on behalf. I have a Cigna Open Access Plus plan (based in NYC, but national coverage).

I’m currently expecting and exploring support options for both birth doula services and postpartum night doula care. I would love to learn more about whether we might be a good fit. A bit about what I’m looking for: Hospital birth with a strong preference for a natural, low-intervention labor Support with mobility, non-medical pain management, and advocacy Calm, grounding presence and clear communication Postpartum/night support focused on feeding support (breastfeeding, pumping, bottle feeds), newborn care, and allowing parents to rest I’m especially interested in: Your experience supporting hospital births How you approach pain management and advocacy during labor Your availability around my due date Whether you offer combined birth + night doula packages, and what that typically looks like Your approach to nighttime feeding support (breastfeeding vs pumped milk) Thank you so much—I really appreciate your time and look forward to hearing from you.

I will be having a home birth unless absolutely necessary that I go to a hospital.

I would love to find someone who offers payment plans if possible :) I am located in North Port. I plan to have an all natural birth with my husband, and mom present. I am not 100% sure that i will want to have a water birth but i would like to have it as an option!

New to this so not quite sure! * this is my first baby so just need help in general - want to learn more about preparing such as pelvic floor exercise, things to help birth go smoother like breathing exercise. * someone to advocate for a more natural approach- hoping to deliver naturally and no c section. * would love to give birth in a birthing center that connected to a hospital or a hospital. Luckily my OB office has 3 midwives so I’ve requested to have the baby delivered by a midwife. * need help developing my birth plan - I know I don’t want the baby to get vaccines, the eye ointment, I want chord clamping, delay bathing the baby
