Doulas of the Southwest

"A doula for every woman who wants one!"

  Our Doulas are independent contractors who set their own fees.  Thus, you need to contact each to inquire about her rates, services and experience.

Doula fees vary from doula to doula. The general range is between $700 - $1,200 in Albuquerque at this time.  Please bear in mind that each Doula has varying credentials (Certified Doula, Childbirth Educator, Certified Lactation Consultant, Student Doula, etc.), experience and services.  Some are willing to work with you via a sliding scale, payment plan, or other arrangements that will enable you to afford doula services. 

Doula fees are set at the time you hire your Doula and usually include not only attendance at your birth, but also a prenatal and postnatal visit as well as phone consulations during your pregnancy. Please remember that you are hiring a woman to be on call for you 24/7 for a couple of weeks before your due date and who will be with you throughout your birthing....no matter how long or short it might be.

Postpartum Doula Services are usually quoted on an hourly basis.  Please call for specific rate information.

Please check our "Meet the Doulas" page for a listing of our Certified Doulas.
