Berkshire Doulas are a group of experienced woman who offer emotional and practical support to a woman or couple before, during and after childbirth. They are all members of Doula UK.and all adhere to a code of conduct and trained through a recognised organization.
The cost of a doula birth package varies according to location and experience but generally falls between £400 and £900. Trainee doulas that have not yet received their recognition from Doula UK and are undergoing mentorship from an experienced doula and therefore may charge a little less for a birth. Postnatal doulas charge from £10 per hour upwards.
Doula UK is a 'not-for-profit' organization and has a Hardship Fund. This can be accessed by women who are receiving state benefits or who have been recommended by a health professional, to enable them to have doula support. The Hardship Fund covers a Doula's expenses but the doula gives her services voluntarily.
