Cost Of Nurturing Births Doula Services:
I charge a flat fee for the Basic Nurturing Births Doula Services Package outlined above. Please contact me to discuss the price of this flat fee. I believe that every birthing woman is entitled to doula support if this is what she wishes, regardless of her financial situation. I offer flexible payment plans and do offer reduced fees for low-income families. I also provide a discount to clients who reside in Guelph.
Additional in-person prenatal or postpartum visits cost $50 for each additional visit.
The price of a Belly Blessing henna tattoo varies depending on intricacy / size / time it takes to apply the henna. Please contact me to discuss your Belly Blessing henna tattoo.
