Preferred Doula Upgrade Guarantee $150*

Guarantee the doula you prefer is on-call for you, attends your birth, and attends all of your prenatal and postpartum visits.  The upgrade fee covers the additional expense of attending births outside of the doulas regular schedule.  It pulls the preferred doula out of the rotation so that she can be on-call just for you.  Since most of us have children often the upgrade fee goes to our childcare fund.  If for some reason your upgraded doula does not make it to your birth (she is at another upgraded birth) the regular on-call doula will attend your birth and your upgrade fee will be refunded.  Find out which doulas are available for your due date.  *Preferred Doula Upgrade fees become non-refundable 30 days or less before your due date, even if you decide to not have a doula present at your birth.  This is due to scheduling changes the doula has made in order to be available for you and because she will not accept conflicting upgrades. In the event that the doula doesn’t make it to your birth by fault of the doula, the fees will be refunded per the Get Babied refund policy.


Apprentice Doula Preference -$150

If you decide to have a Get Babied! Apprentice Doula attend your birth, your doula service package will be discounted by $150.  For example the Get Babied! package becomes $259.  All of our apprentice doulas are trained by DONA or equivalent, and have attended at least 3 births.  They are mentored by our Certified Doulas.
