Is hiring a doula near me in Berkeley, 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 advise you to take extra precautions when hiring a doula near you in Berkeley, CA by running your own background check and by interviewing a handful of candidates.
What types of doula services are available near me in Berkeley, CA?
Doulas can provide support in a few ways. You can hire a birth doula to assist you during birth, you can hire a postpartum doula to provide you with care after delivery, or you can hire a night doula (also known as an overnight doula) to keep an eye on your newborn while you get some much needed rest. You can search Care.com to find the doula services you’re looking for near you in Berkeley, CA.
What types of questions should I ask when interviewing a doula near me in Berkeley, CA?
When you’re looking to hire a doula near you in Berkeley, CA, it can be really helpful to interview a few different candidates to learn more about their experience and the services they offer.
