FOR GROUP & PRIVATE CLASS FEES TEXT: +63920-905-2737
ONE ON ONE: Private Birth Class also available preferably for one whole day (or two half days) in the comfort of your home. Please prepare for lunch & for dinner if we extend (no additional charge for the class). For classes outside Metro Manila (example: Cavite, Laguna, Bulacan), it will be one whole day, example 10:00am-7:00pm (may extend an hour or two if necessary to cover all topics so please keep the whole day open). Additional charge of P2000. if venue is far from Pasig City & if outside Metro Manila. Out of town/country Birth Class is also possible/arrangeable with free board, lodging & transportation fare. Might be cheaper if you come down to Manila.
OTHER AVAILABLE SERVICE: Hire me as your Doula or Professional Labor Coach during your birth. I will be with you from Active labor until your baby is born. Payment is on the same day.
Requirement: You should have been able to complete my Birth Class. I would like to be with you in one of your visit with your OB, at least once, to discuss your birth plan. Acceptance fee of P1000. to be settled right after the doctor's visit. It is non-refundable but deductible to the Doula fee after the baby's birth. Some hospitals need permission for a second person/coach to be with the woman during her labor & birth, so you/we would need to acquire that from the hospital.
Important notice: Advice me, any time of the day, as soon as labor has started to allow me ample time to get ready & to meet up with you during Active Phase in the hospital. Since the time of your birth is unpredictable, I will try to proceed immediately but it is also possible that I may be late or not make it in time.
CANDID PHOTO SHOTS: What better way to capture your wonderful birth experience & remember the first time you held & smelled your baby? Lady photographer recommended by several OB's.
