Kesli helped me during my whole pregnancy and post partum. She is so knowledgeable and supportive. You can tell she loves what she does and does it no only as a job, but as a purpose of her life! I love how she tells you her advices, respecting where you are at in motherhood, your context and choices! She was essential for the way my baby sleeps good today. And also she helped me with my breast feeding journey. I will be honest, every visit she made me in my post partum taught me a lot just watching her with my baby! She will definitely be my doula for the next babies!!!
— Josane L., review of Kesli Moretti
I cannot recommend her enough! As a first time mom, she helped me feel confident, prepared, and empowered throughout my pregnancy and birth, even during the moments when I felt scared and overwhelmed. Her passion for pregnancy, birth, postpartum and everything she does! is so genuine, and you can truly feel how much she cares, which made me feel safe and deeply supported. Breastfeeding was especially important to me, and she helped me with my baby’s latch and supported me throughout those first challenging weeks. She guided me not only with feeding and caring for my baby, but also with navigating my emotions and finding confidence as a new mom. I felt so loved, cared for, and supported through such a life-changing season. Having her by my side was truly incredible, and I will always be grateful for the role she played in my journey into motherhood.
— Valeria R., review of Kesli Moretti
I want to share my experience because I think it’s important for other families to understand not only the care they may receive, but also how insurance and payment arrangements are handled. Before hiring Joanne, I specifically asked about TRICARE. I was told that she accepted TRICARE and that I would be provided with a superbill so I could submit the claim for reimbursement. Based on that information, I felt comfortable moving forward and paid out of pocket for six postpartum doula visits. Unfortunately, when I submitted the claims, TRICARE denied them. The Explanation of Benefits stated that the provider needed to have the appropriate labor doula specialty and a participation agreement on file. When I contacted TRICARE to understand the denial, I was told that the provider needed to have the required participation agreement and that the provider was responsible for submitting the claims. This was very different from what I understood before hiring Joanne. I had relied on the information I was given when deciding to proceed and pay for the services. Had I known there might be an issue with her TRICARE status, participation agreement, or claim-submission process, I would have asked additional questions and clarified everything before paying. I reached out to Joanne to explain what TRICARE had told me and to ask for clarification and assistance resolving the issue. I followed up by text and email, but I have not received a response. At this point, I have paid for the services and have been left trying to resolve the insurance issue on my own, without the clarification or assistance I requested. I want to be clear that my concern is not simply that an insurance claim was denied. Insurance coverage can be complicated, and I understand that reimbursement is not always guaranteed. My concern is that I specifically asked about TRICARE before hiring, made my decision based on the information provided, and then was unable to get a response when the billing issue came up. She has not been helpful or responsive to this matter and has been curt and rude in earlier response and has ghosted me now that I am trying to resolve this. I recommend that anyone considering hiring Joanne get clear, written confirmation before beginning services about whether she is currently eligible to provide covered services under their specific TRICARE plan, whether the required participation agreement is on file, who is responsible for submitting claims, and what happens if a claim is denied. I would also recommend confirming all payment and reimbursement expectations in writing. I’m sharing this so other families can make an informed decision and avoid finding themselves in a similar situation.

What is a doula and why should you hire one?
A doula is a trained support specialist who provides continuous physical, emotional, and informational support to the mother before, during, and after childbirth. 98.6% of births in the U.S. take place in hospitals, and nearly all of them require some kind of medical intervention. However, doula-supported deliveries are linked to shorter labor, decreased need for medications, fewer c-sections, higher rates of breastfeeding initiation, less anxiety, and less postpartum depression.
Can you pay for a doula with HSA or FSA funds in Wellington, FL?
To use HSA or FSA funds for doula services, they generally need to be considered medically necessary. You might need a doctor's note or prescription stating that doula services are necessary for a specific medical condition. Keep detailed records of payments and any supporting documentation, such as a doctor's note or prescription, to substantiate that the expense was medically necessary.
Are doulas covered by insurance in Wellington, FL?
Florida Medicaid’s coverage of doula services remains pending, although the state is moving toward offering this benefit through Medicaid managed care plans. A consistent statewide fee-for-service benefit has not been established. Wellington has a robust local market, with 59 doulas listed within 60 miles. Private insurance benefits may vary, so check directly with your insurer.
What types of doulas are for hire in Wellington, FL?
Within 60 miles of Wellington, 120 doulas are listed, including 38 who provide birth support only during labor and delivery. The 23 postpartum-only doulas focus on care after the baby arrives. Another 29 offer both birth and postpartum support, assisting families through delivery and the weeks that follow. The remaining 30 are listed simply as doulas, without identifying either birth or postpartum as their service type.
When should I hire a doula in pregnancy?
You can start researching and contacting doulas as early as your first trimester. This allows you ample time to find a doula who aligns with your birth plan and build a rapport with them. Many people choose to hire a doula during their second trimester, around weeks 12 to 27. By this point, you likely have a clearer understanding of your birth preferences and can engage a doula who can provide support tailored to your needs. If you’re in your third trimester or even approaching your due date, it’s not too late to hire a doula. Some individuals make this decision later in pregnancy due to various reasons, and doulas can still offer valuable support and information during this time. The availability of doulas in your area may also influence when you hire one. In some regions, experienced doulas may have limited availability, so it’s wise to start your search early to secure the support you desire.
What's the difference between a midwife and a doula?
A midwife is a trained health professional who helps women during labor, delivery, and after the birth of their babies. Midwives can provide gynecological examinations, prenatal care, and postpartum support. They are qualified to deliver babies and are trained to handle certain complications during childbirth. A doula, on the other hand, is a non-medical professional who provides emotional, physical, and educational support to a mother who is expecting, is experiencing labor, or has recently given birth. The doula's role is to help women have a safe, memorable, and empowering birthing experience. They are known for their continuous support, beginning during pregnancy and lasting through the postpartum period. While midwives have a broad scope of practice that is clinical in nature, doulas specialize in the non-clinical aspects of care. They might be preferred by mothers who are looking for continuous bedside support that is not typically provided by the medical staff. Doulas are known for their advocacy for the mother's wishes during childbirth, which can be especially valuable in hospital settings where the mother may desire a birth plan that deviates from standard procedures.
