Be Not Afraid Births
Britta Kreps - birth Doula
​
Preparing, encouraging, and supporting mothers throughout pregnancy and the child birth experience
SERVICES OFFERED
Every client's needs are different and I hope to serve accordingly. In general, my services begin in the third trimester meeting the expectant parents, offering prenatal education, and establishing a birth plan. Then I will be with mother and partner for the entire labor. After baby arrives I will be available for a short time at the hospital or other birth location and then I will follow-up during the first few weeks.
