Thank you so much and look forward to talking with you! Warmly, Camille

I want to do a water birth. On the cheaper side Birth Plan: Baby & Mom Stay Connected My Birth Philosophy I want my birth experience to be calm, respectful, and centered around keeping my baby and me together as much as safely possible. I value informed consent, gentle care, skin-to-skin bonding, and a peaceful environment. I understand birth can be unpredictable, and my priority is a healthy baby and healthy mother. If interventions become medically necessary, I would like explanations of the benefits, risks, and alternatives before decisions are made whenever possible. ⸻ Labor Preferences ☐ I would like a calm, low-intervention birth environment. ☐ Please ask for my consent before exams, procedures, medications, or interventions. ☐ I prefer minimal vaginal exams unless medically necessary. ☐ I would like freedom to move, change positions, use a birth ball, shower, or tub if available. ☐ I prefer intermittent monitoring when appropriate rather than continuous monitoring unless medically indicated. ☐ I would like my support person involved in helping me stay comfortable and informed. ☐ I prefer natural pain coping methods first: * Breathing techniques * Movement/position changes * Massage/counter pressure * Water therapy * Quiet environment ☐ If pain medication or interventions are recommended, please discuss options with me. ⸻ Water Birth / Hydrotherapy Preferences ☐ I would like access to a labor tub or shower if available. ☐ If I qualify and it is safe, I would like the option of a water birth. ☐ I would like the room kept calm with dim lighting and minimal interruptions when possible. ⸻ Medications & Interventions ☐ I prefer to avoid routine interventions unless medically necessary. ☐ Please discuss before: * Pitocin/oxytocin * Breaking my water * Episiotomy * Assisted delivery * Cesarean section ⸻ Baby’s Arrival My goal is immediate bonding. ☐ Immediate skin-to-skin after birth. ☐ Delay weighing/measuring until after initial bonding when medically appropriate. ☐ Keep baby with me as much as possible (“rooming in”). ☐ Partner/support person may accompany baby if baby needs to leave the room. ☐ I prefer breastfeeding/chestfeeding support before offering supplementation. ☐ I would like help with the first latch when possible. ⸻ Newborn Care Preferences Please discuss newborn procedures with me before they are performed whenever possible. Questions I would like answered: * What is the purpose of each screening? * What are the benefits and risks? * What are the alternatives? * What happens if we delay? Preferences: ☐ I would like to be present for newborn procedures. ☐ I prefer my baby not be separated from me unless medically necessary. ☐ I would like to discuss newborn medications, screenings, and vaccines with my provider and make informed decisions. ⸻ Visitors & Environment ☐ Quiet room with limited visitors. ☐ Only people I personally approve may visit. ☐ Please allow time for bonding before visitors. ☐ My support person is my advocate and should be included in communication. ⸻ If Cesarean Birth Becomes Necessary If a C-section becomes necessary: ☐ I would like my support person present. ☐ I would like skin-to-skin as soon as safely possible. ☐ I would like baby kept with me whenever possible. ☐ I would like gentle/Cesarean options discussed if available. ⸻ My Reminder to My Care Team I appreciate your expertise and want to work together. My goal is a safe birth while protecting the bonding experience between me and my baby. Please communicate with kindness, patience, and respect. Mom’s Signature: ____________________ Date: ____________________ Provider Acknowledgment: ____________________ Pitocin/Oxytocin Preference I decline Pitocin (oxytocin) unless there is a true medical emergency where my life or my baby’s life is at risk.

Sutter Davis Unsure about budget Ideally natural water birth

Looking for a birth doula that is fully covered by my Kaiser Norcal plan. I am being induced soon -- 10/1/26 (39 weeks) -- at Kaiser Redwood City but just learned that health insurance now covers doulas so am a bit behind. I will use the birth plan from my first child as a rough guide but I know that it can all quickly go out the door as it did with him. My intention is to deliver vaginally and get an epidural.

I’m located in Mountainhouse California. I have an 11 month old when I will have a newborn on October 1. I’ll be having a C-section so I need support in general postpartum with my recovery with a newborn

We’re looking for an experienced overnight newborn care provider for the first 1–2 months postpartum. Ideally, we’d like someone with both NCS experience and postpartum doula credentials. A formal postpartum doula certification is strongly preferred for possible reimbursement through Carrot, Anthem Blue Cross PPO, or Progyny. Our main need is overnight newborn care, not cooking or housekeeping. My parents will help with meals. Responsibilities would include feeding support, bringing baby to me for breastfeeding, burping, diaper changes, soothing, safely settling baby back to sleep, bottle/pump-part cleaning, and tracking feeds, diapers, and sleep. Mandarin is preferred, but English-only is completely fine for the right candidate. We strongly prefer someone who has cared for 15+ newborns, with substantial recent experience with babies 0–12 weeks old. Infant CPR/First Aid, strong references, and adherence to current AAP safe sleep guidelines are required. We prefer a responsive, evidence-based approach and no cry-it-out sleep training for a young newborn. Please share your credentials, approximate number of newborns you’ve cared for, overnight availability, rate, minimum booking requirements, and whether you can provide documentation for insurance/benefit reimbursement.

I am located in Southern California in the Irvine area. My husband is in the military and is currently deployed. He most likely will not be able to be at the birth of our son. Because of that I will be giving birth in Napa California at Queen of the valley hospital. I have tricare and hope to get the doula services covered through my insurance. I am a first time mom so I do not currently have a birth plan per se so I am hoping the doula could help me. I am 24 years old and like I said this is my very first baby so anything helps.

Hi there. We are expecting and looking for a daytime doula to help with our infant during the day. We are located in Redwood City, and would be reimbursing through Carrot so inclusion as a Carrot certified doula would be preferred. Wanted to know what services you offer and rate. Thanks!

Hospital (planning to deliver at a hospital in the Bay Area / Mountain View, CA area). I have Cigna commercial insurance and understand doula care may be covered under California AB 904. I'd like to first use my insurance benefit if possible. For any out-of-pocket portion, my budget is approximately $4,000 for postpartum support. First-time mother, IVF pregnancy, currently under OB-GYN and Maternal-Fetal Medicine (MFM) care due to advanced maternal age (38). Planning a hospital birth. Open to natural birth but following medical guidance. Due date: January 20, 2027. I would especially value postpartum support, as I don't have family nearby.
