What are your options?

Virtual Interview

A free, 30 minute virtual meeting. You can ask clarifying questions, confirm which option is best for you, and get the help & support you need without judgment.

Introductory Class

The Introductory course lasts about 90 minutes to two(2) hours, depending on your questions and needs. You’ll gain extensive knowledge on pregnancy, birth, and caring for your newborn. This session is the first of the series to help you decide if I am the right doula and educator for you.

Virtual Childbirth Preparation Classes

Once you’ve completed the Introductory Class, we can move on to the complete series. These three (3) additional sessions — about 5 to 6 hours of one-on-one childbirth education in total — will educate you on how to have a safe, comfortable birthing experience.

These Childbirth Preparation Classes will fully prepare you for birth. You won’t need to take any additional classes other than Infant CPR.

Unlimited Virtual Labor Support

Your doula can provide unlimited virtual support for as much time as you need when you are in labor. The flat rate for this support is $1,000 if you have paid for and taken all four (4) Childbirth Preparation Classes

New!Best of Both Worlds (BoBW)

A newer doula who has received special training by tracy hartley will provide hands-on support while tracy or another highly experienced doula will be available for unlimited support virtually throughout your labor. The Newer doula will attend some or all of the prenatal classes so you can get to know each other as you prepare for your birth.

Childbirth Preparation Classes

Virtual, 1-on-1 preparation so that you will begin labor with full confidence & little to no obstacles.

As your educator, I’ll provide tips on…

N

How to get the birth you want in a hospital setting,

N
Which hospital protocols are actually necessary, and
N

How, when & why to avoid the ones that aren’t.

We’ll also get to know each other better so that I can best support your wishes and goals for birth.

You can learn everything you need to know from the comfort of your own home.

Sign up with your partner — or even a doula of your own choosing!

You want an experienced doula who will know what to do in any situation… but they’re so expensive!

You found a doula who can be with you no matter how long your labor lasts, and provide hands-on support. They charge less money… but they lack experience.

B*E*S*T Doula Service has the perfect solution for you:
It’s the Best of Both Worlds!

Sign up for our childbirth prep classes with your newer doula, who will then be the one at your side during labor with the full knowledge to assist you. Then if you, your partner, or your hands-on doula have questions or need guidance during labor, you can call us at any time for virtual support.

It’s the best of both worlds – wisdom gained by many years of experience, combined with the energy & enthusiasm of an eager new doula. The perfect combination!

Testimonials

What Our Clients Say

Thanks Goodness tracy was there. All I can say, I couldn’t have done it without her help, support and guidance. She was a guiding light for me, someone I trusted and could turn to when I found myself freaking out. She is very cool, calm and collected and puts you at ease, even in the throws of labor. She does her absolute best to make you feel comfortable and knows her way around a hospital setting. Worth every penny.
- Sheena R.

Tracy is super supportive and comforting. Having Tracy next to me during my daughter’s labor gave me the strength and confidence I needed during L&D. With the expansive knowledge Tracy has she was able to provide me with guidance to make my labor more relaxed and enjoyable! Beautiful Soul!!!
