 | Comment from jennavee » Posted Jan. 1, 2014 7:50pm It depends on the area, their experience, etc. But I've found them ranging from $400 to $1400. The most average price seems to be about $600. That typically includes a free consultation, a couple of prenatal visits, on-call availability from 38 weeks on, support from onset of labor until delivery, and 1 or 2 postpartum visits. I REALLY want a doula, but I can't find one in my area that is in the range we can afford. I'm still looking though...hopefully something will work out! |
