Kailee D Stephens: My Services

WHAT SERVICES DO I OFFER?
As a labor doula, I offer an initial interview around 30 wks. This will give us a chance to meet, and allows you to learn more about me and what exactly I can do for you. This is also gives me a chance to understand your birth plan and your ideal birth wishes.

I will stay in contact regularly as your birth approaches. I will be available to answer any questions or concerns and to share in the excitement of your last trimester.

At 38 wks, we miss meet again (with your partner if there is one) and review your official Birth Plan.

When labor begins or when you are ready for me, I will come to your house or meet you at the hospital/birthing center, day or night, to coach you and your partner through the laboring process. Additionally, I will stay with you for 30-60 min post partum to assist with breastfeeding and provide any further advice needed.

Finally, I have one post partum phone call/visit after your baby is born. This is meant to help you with any breastfeeding issues as well as to give you the opportunity to discuss your birth experience via an evaluation form.

A Doula can charge up to $1500. I have chosen to charge $550 for up to 10 hrs of labor. After that mark, there is a $25/hour charge. $250 is due upon retaining my services at 30-32wks and $300 final payment due at our 38wk meeting. Payments can be made by check or by credit card via the Paypal link at my site.

Testimonial

Carrie, mother to Natalie Sage

"The amount of encouragement and the light heartedness of the laboring approach were incredibly helpful in keeping the emotional aspects of labor positive. I never felt like I had reason to fixate on anything negative that was happening for very long. Kailee's presence and suggestions during the entire process were incredibly useful. I am convinced that everything would have gone very differently had she not been there. If we put her on a scale of 1 to 10, for us, she was a 10! Simply being there as our support system so my husband didn’t have to bear all the burden of remembering everything from our birthing classes, and to help us make informed decisions along the way was more than useful- it gave us peace of mind to have Kailee there!!"

Testimonial

Krystal, mom to Jerusalem, Hosanna, Malachi & Jubilee
"I asked Kailee to be my doula during the birth of my 2nd little girl. I had an emergency c-section after a 25 hour labor with my first & was planning on having a V-Bac . I had no idea what to expect with it. I had never started labor on my own, or anything.

Kailee agreed to help coach me. She was available when I called her at 2am and came right to my aide. She was very helpful with questions that I had, with helping me move into different laboring positions, and massage. She was very knowledgeable, which was wonderful to have in the room with the doctor coming in & out. On top of all that Kailee prayed for me. She was there, all 12 hours of my labor, encouraging me I could make it, and cheering me on as I pushed little Hosanna right out! She was also a great photographer, as everyone was emotionally overwhelmed, she got great shots of Hosanna's first moments!

Kailee stood by me and helped and encouraged me through a very successful V-Bac of my 8lb 7oz little girl who decided to come out sunny side up! Now i have the chance to have all of my children naturally!
