WHY CHOOSE A DEATH DOULA?

Working with a death doula can provide comfort and support during difficult times. Doulas (sometimes known as a Death Midwife or transition guide) offer understanding, presence, and resources to help you navigate the challenges of death with dignity and grace. Whether for yourself or a loved one, a death doula can be a valuable companion on the journey towards a more prepared and peaceful end-of-life experience.

LET'S WALK THIS PATH TOGETHER

Whether you’re interested in learning more about death doulas or working with us directly, you’ll have a chance to meet with us one-on-one first to review your needs. 


We can communicate through email, text, phone or video calls. We are always available to assist you with any questions and help you with your plans. After understanding your situation, we can evaluate the best way to support you and who within our collective is most suitable. 


Once you’ve decided to move forward, we will become a member of your care team. The length and frequency of our visits is worked out between you and your doula to start, and may evolve over time. The type of service and fee will depend on your support needs and length of service, all of which is offered on a sliding scale.
