Why choose For the Village for your doula care?

Doula Visits.

One-on-one doula support is provided to you throughout your journey.

All visits are done in person at the location of your choice. Whether you prefer to have your doula meet you at home, at a park, a library, or a local cafe, our doulas come to you where you are comfortable.

Our doulas on staff are amazing - and offer Full Spectrum support, services in English, Spanish, and Haitian-Creole.

Care.

We care deeply about our client’s experience. From the moment you are onboarded, you are walked through our services by our amazing client services team. Our Client Services representative will meet with you over the phone, get to know you and what you are looking for in a doula. We will then do our best to pair you with someone who meets those needs - based on availability!

Once you are paired with a doula, our Client Services team will check in on you to see how the visits are going. We encourage you to reach out to us if you need anything at all - from the beginning of your journey with us, to the end. We are here to help you!
