Yes, I can support you pre-natally and during birth without the postpartum care. It's ideal to have continuity of care meaning the full doula package where I continue to see you after birth but if you wish to only get birth support this would be the package. To get this you need to still fill in the 'standard' enquiry form above and come in for a meet & greet. Just let me know you are looking for prenatal care and birth support only. Please note I do not offer birth support without prenatal care/education.
