Question 1

How many Doulas will I meet with and how long will I have with each one?

Typically there are 8-10 doulas at the event. Your due date and needs (birth or postpartum, or both) are matched with the doulas attending and you'll have 5 minutes to meet with each one. The meeting time is quick, and is intended for you to get a feel for their personality and how they work.

Question 3

Do I need to be there for the whole event?

Each family is matched with the doulas that have availability for the date and services they are looking for. The time allows for you to meet with as many of your matches as possible; you may not require the entire time.

Am I obligated to hire a Doula?

Accepted Answer
