Find Doula Jobs in Worcester, MA

Hi there, I hope you’re doing well. I’m reaching out because I’m currently looking for a birth doula for my October delivery. I’m currently 14 weeks pregnant with an estimated due date of 10/14. I’m planning to deliver at Women & Infants Hospital in Providence with the midwives at the birthing center, and I’m based in Mansfield, MA. I’m looking for a doula who is experienced with Women & Infants and supportive of a midwife-led birth experience. This is my first baby and pregnancy, so looking for all the advice and support! I have United Healthcare through Harvard Pilgrim, so I’d also love to know whether you accept this insurance, offer reimbursement support, or can provide a superbill. If you have October availability, I’d love to learn more about your services, experience, pricing, and whether you offer a consultation call. Thank you so much, and I look forward to hearing from you. Best, Kelsey

This is my second baby after several years going through IVF. WIth my first, I really struggled during the postpartum period and found that my friends and family were not prepared to offer help, so I appreciate any support (both with caring for the baby, myself after a C-section, and my mental health) that can be offered. I am especially interested if my Blue Cross insurance could be applied.

First baby, hospital birth, unmedicated birth, $2000 budget

I plan to give birth at Women and infants. I think they are planning on inducing me because I am considered higher risk. Our budget is between 800-1000, but can go up to 1200 if it's the right person. My birth plan is to not die basically. I don't know. I know I want an epidural. I don't know what my options are. My husband and I have a history of medical trauma, and so there is some anxiety on his part going in.

Describe your birth plan: I am planning a midwife-led hospital birth with an OB available if medically necessary. My goal is to have an unmedicated, low-intervention vaginal birth and use the Alternative Birthing Center at Rhode Island Hospital if I remain eligible. I would like freedom of movement during labor and want to use different positions, breathing techniques, massage, counter-pressure, hydrotherapy/water labor, and other non-medication comfort measures. I want a calm, supportive environment where my preferences are respected while still having immediate access to medical care if complications arise. I am looking for a doula who will provide continuous emotional and physical support throughout labor, help me advocate for my birth preferences, explain options when appropriate, and work collaboratively and respectfully with my midwife, nurses, and medical team.

I am primarily seeking prenatal and labor/birth doula support rather than newborn childcare. I would also appreciate some initial postpartum guidance related to recovery, newborn adjustment, and feeding. I plan to discuss my feeding preferences and goals with the doula during our consultation. Additional Duties: My primary need is birth support. I am not currently looking for the doula to provide regular housekeeping, cooking, laundry, or sleep-training services. I would value: * Prenatal birth-preparation sessions * Help refining my birth preferences/birth plan * Labor positioning and comfort techniques * Continuous support during labor and delivery * Guidance for my partner on how to support me * Early postpartum check-in/support * Basic breastfeeding/feeding support or referrals when appropriate * Help connecting me with additional postpartum or lactation resources if needed

My husband and I are delighted to be expecting our first child and are looking for doula support for a hospital or birth center birth in Boston. Our total budget is $1,000-$1,500, and we’re hoping to find support that includes: - Editing and refining my birth plan into a clear, one-page summary. - An in-person session to practice coping techniques for labor. - In-person support at home during early labor. - Ongoing support at the hospital or birth center, helping me communicate my birth plan, advocate for my preferences, ask questions, and make informed decisions. - Staying after the birth to help with initial breastfeeding and latch. My goal is a safe, unmedicated vaginal, downward labor type birth with minimal intervention when medically appropriate. My priorities include consent before examinations and procedures, freedom to move and choose birth positions, a calm and low-light environment, and immediate skin-to-skin contact and breastfeeding support. I remain open to medically necessary interventions after an informed discussion whenever circumstances allow. Please let me know whether you can offer these services within our budget.
