• Postpartum (after birth) visits

There are two levels of doula services:

1. Standard care

• Up to eight visits in the prenatal or postpartum period, including the option of one initial prenatal visit

• Your doula will be at the delivery

2. Enhanced care

• Available to members who are 19 years old or younger at the time of the first doula service visit

• Up to 12 visits in the prenatal or postpartum period, including the option of one initial prenatal visit

• Your doula will be at the delivery
