New Client Paperwork

Articles and Handouts
for new clients working with our doulas

The following documents are in printer-friendly portable document format (pdf). You’ll need Adobe Acrobat Reader to view and print these files. If you don’t have this program, get it for free on Adobe’s official website.

For 1st Prenatal Visit

Please fill out ALL except the Birth Plan Notes before our first prenatal class. The Birth Plan Notes are for you to take notes during our meeting and then use those notes to create your birth plan after the meeting. Please send me your Birth Plan drafts before our next meeting.

For 2nd Prenatal Visit

Please fill these out separately and then share your responses with each other. Any responses that are more than 20% different should be discussed with each other. Please have all handouts printed out before our second prenatal class.

What “non-doula” skills or talents do you bring to your doula work?

I have degrees in social welfare and biology, allowing me to provide evidence-based information while also understanding the emotional and systemic layers that shape someone's experience of pregnancy, birth, and postpartum.

What’s your favorite “fun fact” about birth?

A pregnant person's diet can impact the flavor and smell of their amniotic fluid, so babies get an early taste of the foods their parent eats!

More About Isabel

Describe your dream client.

My dream client is someone who is curious and wants to explore what works for them! I want my clients to be empowered to make informed choices that combine evidence-based information and their own values and lived experience to navigate pregnancy, birth, and postpartum in the way that is right for them.

How do you enjoy spending free time?

In my free time, I like to be active and outside! I run, hike, camp, and read. I also like to play music and sew.
