About the Pricing
For additional context, the standard insurance reimbursement rate for a prenatal education visit—typically just under two hours of doula services—is $162.11. These workshops include approximately two hours of professional instruction, along with preparation, facilitation, and materials. By offering this content in a class setting, we’re able to provide high-quality doula-led education at a significantly reduced cost, making our services more accessible to a wider community.
We also use a green bottle sliding scale model—those who are able to pay more help make space for those who need to pay less. Thank you for choosing the option that makes the most sense for your household and for supporting community-based care.
