How does the pricing work?
Birth support comes in three packages: $550, $850, and $1,200. You choose the package that fits your household. The Pay-It-Forward rate helps keep lower-cost support available for another family.
What’s the difference between the three birth packages?
Supported Birth ($550) includes 1 prenatal visit and 1 postpartum visit. Standard Birth Support ($850) includes 2 prenatal visits and 1 postpartum visit. Pay-It-Forward Birth ($1,200) includes 2 prenatal visits and 2 postpartum visits, plus a childbirth series or extra support we choose together. Every package includes continuous labor and birth support.
How do payments work?
A retainer holds your date on my calendar. The balance is due in the payment window in your agreement, around 37 to 39 weeks for Standard Birth Support. If you cancel before birth, the retainer is kept and everything else is refunded.
Do you offer virtual sessions?
Yes. Virtual prenatal sessions happen on Google Meet for $50 per hour. Cancel 24 hours or more ahead for a full refund. Cancellations with less notice aren’t refunded, and you can reschedule up to two times.
Do you do overnight postpartum visits?
No. Postpartum visits happen during the day. Labor support can run overnight because it is continuous.
What area do you serve?
I’m based in San Antonio. In-home and hospital support has no travel fee within about 50 miles, which includes Boerne and New Braunfels, and I travel farther for a flat round-trip fee. Virtual prenatal sessions happen on Google Meet, wherever you are.
