Is hiring a doula near me in Arcata, CA safe?
Doulas don’t provide you with medical services and you will still have a doctor assist you while giving birth, but a doula can offer additional support and care during and after a pregnancy. We ask all doulas on Care.com to complete an annual background check called a CareCheck. If a doula completes a CareCheck they will have a badge on their profile that displays the date it was run. We advise you to take extra precautions when hiring a doula near you in Arcata, CA by running your own background check and by interviewing a handful of candidates.

Doulas can provide support in a few ways.
