Why this matters for fertility patients
Patients who've undergone fertility treatment often have unique emotional needs during pregnancy:
- Higher anxiety about pregnancy loss
- Complex feelings about the conception journey
- Desire for extra support and reassurance
- Often first-time parents needing guidance
- May have less family support nearby
Doula support addresses these needs with continuous emotional care that complements your clinical services.

Partnership questions
Common questions from clinics considering partnership.
Partnership is customizable, but typically includes: easy referral pathways for your staff, patient education materials, quarterly reporting on outcomes, and a dedicated partnership manager. There's no financial commitment—you simply refer patients who can benefit from doula support.
Your staff can refer patients via a simple online form, direct email, or phone call. We contact the patient within 24 hours, explain our services, and begin the matching process if they're interested. You receive updates on patient engagement.
Yes. Many of our doulas have specific experience supporting IVF pregnancies, which can involve unique emotional considerations. We match fertility clinic referrals with doulas experienced in this area.
Research shows doula-supported births have lower C-section rates, shorter labors, less need for pain medication, and higher patient satisfaction. We provide quarterly reports on outcomes for your referred patients.
No cost to your practice. Patients pay for doula services directly (or through insurance where applicable). Partnership simply creates an easy referral pathway and ensures your patients have access to quality support.
Absolutely. We provide co-branded brochures, posters for your waiting room, and digital materials that your staff can share with patients.
We follow strict HIPAA guidelines. Referrals only include information needed for outreach. Our doulas maintain confidentiality and can coordinate with your clinical team as needed with patient consent.
