Welcoming a new baby is one of life's biggest transitions, and you don't have to navigate it alone. If you have a Health Savings Account (HSA) or Flexible Spending Account (FSA), you may be able to use your funds to help cover eligible postpartum doula services.

Using your HSA or FSA allows you to invest pre-tax dollars into professional postpartum support, making it easier to receive the care your family deserves during the fourth trimester. Many families choose overnight care, while others prefer daytime support or a combination of both.

Overnight Postpartum Support

Our overnight doulas are dedicated to helping your family prioritize rest, recovery, and confidence.

A typical overnight shift runs from 10:00 PM–6:00 AM. During the first part of the evening, your doula focuses on preparing your home for a restful night by:

  • Washing bottles and pump parts

  • Baby laundry

  • Restocking diapering and feeding stations

  • Light household tidying

  • Preparing breakfast or a nourishing meal for the following day

Throughout the night, your doula provides newborn care based on your family's feeding goals, including diaper changes, soothing, swaddling, bottle preparation, breastfeeding support, and helping you get as much uninterrupted sleep as possible.

Many families tell us that overnight support is one of the most valuable investments they make during the postpartum period because restorative sleep can have a profound impact on physical recovery, emotional well-being, and the transition into parenthood.

Daytime Postpartum Support

If overnight care isn't the right fit, daytime support offers hands-on assistance during the hours you need it most.

Daytime visits can include:

  • Newborn education

  • Breastfeeding and bottle-feeding support

  • Meal preparation

  • Baby care while parents rest or shower

  • Household organization

  • Emotional support

  • Assistance caring for older siblings

  • Accompaniment to appointments and errands

Investment

Our standard postpartum rates are:

  • $60/hour for daytime care and overnight care Sunday–Thursday

  • $65/hour for overnight care Friday & Saturday

  • $65/hour for care with multiples

  • $500 enrollment fee to reserve your doula team and begin care planning

Because HSA and FSA plans vary by employer and administrator, eligibility and reimbursement requirements may differ. We recommend confirming your benefits with your plan administrator. Our team is happy to provide detailed invoices and documentation to support eligible reimbursement requests whenever possible.

Personalized Support for Every Family

Some families use their HSA or FSA funds for intensive overnight support during the first few weeks after birth. Others prefer to spread their care over several weeks by combining daytime and overnight visits. Every family's needs are different, and your postpartum support should be too.

During your complimentary consultation, we'll discuss your recovery goals, budget, work schedules, feeding preferences, and support system to create a personalized postpartum care plan designed specifically for your family.
