18 Karak Kit

Your $1000* investment in the 18 Karat Kit includes:

INITIAL CONSULTATION

This is the first time you and your doula will meet. With a more detailed look at what’s offered, we will find the most ideal package for you and your family. It’s important to be certain it’s a good fit before making any commitments.

TWO PRENATAL HOME VISITS

The bond between you and your doula will grow stronger as this is the time to discuss your ideal birth experience. You and your doula will work together to create a birth preference sheet so everyone on your birth team knows what they can do to help you best. In these prenatal visits, you will also practice mental and physical relaxation as well as explore various labour positions and other comfort techniques that might be right for you.

37 WEEK SHOWCASE

This will be the last meeting with your doula before your birth! We can test transportation options, tour the birth place (when applicable) or discuss any last minute details or questions. The showcase also provides for the perfect opportunity to envision and clarify what an ideal postpartum life looks like for your family. This visit should be around the 37th week of pregnancy at which your doula is on call 24/7 and ready to support you when labour starts.

CONTINUED SUPPORT THROUGHOUT LABOUR

When you go into labour, your doula will come to your home and provide continuous support. Using what was practiced in the previous visits, your doula will work alongside your partner and birth team to assist you. Once the initial breastfeeding has taken place your doula will leave allowing your new family to bond.

POST BIRTH VISIT

Your doula will come to your home within the first two weeks to see how you are adjusting to the new life with your baby. At this time your doula will go over your birth story relaying as much detail as you might need. You’re also given a printed copy of your birth story so you can keep an accurate memory of such an important life event. After answering any other baby care questions you may have, it is time to say a final goodbye to your doula.
