Doula Services

The ‘Zephyr Doula Complete’ package is designed to provide the best possible support, but I am always open for individualising care.

This could mean adding extra visits, shamanic sessions or moving one of the prenatal sessions to the postpartum period. Take a look at the options and let’s discuss a solution to suit your needs.

 

‘Zephyr Doula Complete’ Package

I believe in offering you the best care possible, which includes as standard:

  • An introductory meeting (free of charge, no commitment)

  • A minimum of three pre-natal visits before the birth (at least 1-2 hours long)

  • Full availability during the on-call period (available from week 37- week 42)

  • The birth (up until 3 hours after you have given birth)

  • Two post-natal visits (one within 10 days, and one 5-6 weeks after giving birth to close the circle)

In my experience, building a relationship underpinned by trust is helpful for the process of giving birth and becoming a parent, as well as for processing the journey that you have made.

While I am a ‘doula in training’, we will discuss pricing in person. The price reflects the quality and quantity of care that I provide, as well as the experience that I bring and the willingness to learn and dive deeper which each pregnant person / couple that I support.

If money becomes an obstacle, please know that a payment plan is always an option. If you truly cannot afford my care, do know that I am building up a fund so that I can also support people for reduced prices. Don’t hesitate to contact me to discuss this.

Additional Services

If you would like any additional sessions or services added to the standard package outlined above, please read through the following list of options. Let’s discuss how we can incorporate them. to create the perfect level of support for you:

Additional Pre/ post-natal visits

If you feel you would benefit from an additional pre/ post-natal visit these can be agreed up front and scheduled accordingly. If after the agreement is signed you would like to increase our number of visits, this can be discussed and scheduled according to availability. These sessions can last between 1-2 hours.

Written Birth Story

Usually, I do not write up the birth story; my advice for the mother/father is to write down their own experience shortly after the birth. I can give a general time line of events. If you’d like me to write a more detailed account, this is possible.


Photography

I am very happy to take pictures during the birth. I am not a professional photographer though, so quality may vary according to (lighting) circumstances. I do have a good camera that I can bring along. I will share all the pictures with you via dropbox (and will delete them afterwards from my camera and dropbox). I would appreciate to be able to use suitable pictures on my website or social media (after consent of course!).


Post-partum care

If you feel you would like additional home support once your baby is born, this can be discussed and arranged accordingly. This could include childcare for your other child/ children (I am an experienced nanny), cooking meals, batch cooking, light household duties, dog walking, groceries, changing bedsheet, laundry etc.


Shamanic Doula Services

Divination Reading

A detailed card reading which provides gentle, yet profound answers and insights to move you forward through any questions or feelings arising during your pregnancy. This is a remote session (I will share the reading transcript via email and discuss with you after should any questions arise), This reading is a wonderful way to offer general insight on your Now as you head into the next important 6 months of your life as a mother. This can be general, or focused on health, love or finance or answer for 3-5 specific questions.


Energetic Cleansing: Illumination

Rooted in the Ancient traditions of Andean Shamanism, Zephyr offers the relaxing, healing space to re-balance your energy body. Through working with the 7 chakras, I will re-balance your energy, removing any blockages or issues that may result from ancestral trauma, lifestyle, or personal events. This session lasts approximately 1,5 to 2 hours and is a staple in energetic cleansing and spiritual wellbeing. Most other healing cannot take place until cleansing and rebalancing has taken place. This session allows you the clear space to start from.

Shamanic New Life Ceremony and Rituals

A beautiful, bespoke ceremony to welcome your child into the world, and prepare you as you embark on your journey to parenthood. This is a two-hour session with you or include your partner (or friend/ family member if more relevant). I will guide the ceremony, either in nature or your home, and share additional daily rituals and practices with you, which you can carry with you throughout your pregnancy and beyond.
