Doula services
What is a doula?
A doula is a professional trained in childbirth who provides emotional, physical and informational support to the mother who is expecting, is experiencing labor, or has recently given birth. The doula’s purpose is to help women (and couples) have a safe, memorable and empowering birthing experience.
I recommend you to have the birthing lessons during the pregnancy with me, Stephanie or your hospital if you prefer.
We will work as a team to offer you our support along the pregnancy, the birth and the post partum period.
I offer you (and your partner) our emotional and physical support before, during and after childbirth.
As a midwife, I believe in ‘mothering the mother’, enabling a woman to have the most satisfying experience that she can, from pregnancy and into motherhood. This type of support allows the whole family to relax and enjoy the experience too.
I am working with Stephanie Kawai (Tokyo Doula support) for this service, she can be my backup so you know there is always available someone for you.
Because since the covid-19 I am not allowed in some hospital, stephanie and I are offering online support.
I am not available for this service In July and August.
Fees : ¥ 70,000 for the package (pregnancy and birth support plus a postpartum visit)
- ¥ 20,000 for the prenatal support (including two childbirth lessons and casual meetings and support by phone, emails.)
-¥ 50,000 (if I am with you at the birth) payable at the postpartum visit or via bank transfer within 1-2 weeks after the birth (plus night time taxi fee if applicable).
If the support during labour is virtual then I am offering 2 additional visits during postpartum (one of the visit can be for showing you some baby massage techniques!)
