Here is a list of the services they offer, including birth support, postpartum support, newborn childcare classes & massages.

Marley & Moo Houston Doula

There are two locations for Marley & Moo–Houston & Phoenix. Let’s talk about this Houston Doula! They are 2018 award winners for Expertise.com for the Best Doula’s in Houston Award. Their business is made up of 9 highly educated women in the birthing industry. Their skill sets include birth doulas, lactation consultants, and postpartum doulas. This essentially means they are there for you every step of the way- From pregnancy to birth to nursing and healing postpartum. That’s a crazy time ladies! Let these women really take care of you and educate you so that you can be prepared and equipped to handle all of the things headed your way once that precious bundle arrives.

I love that they offer referral services for other professionals as well! New moms are always in need of a great recommendation for maternity and newborn services and it can be overwhelming to try to find someone that is great, without a personalized recommendation.

Houston Doula Womb Service

Besides their adorably catchy name, they pride themselves on being a nonjudgemental fertility, birth, and postpartum Houston doula service provider. If you’re wondering “What is a doula anyways?”, no worries. They have written an article thoroughly explaining the role of doula during birth. It is very insightful and might just bust through some preconceived myths & ideas you have about birth work.

Concierge Doulas of Houston

I love the services that this Houston Doula provider offers! Their concierge services include

Hynobaby therapy
Night Nannies
Sleep training
Placenta Encapsulation
Belly Binding
Belly Art
Car Seat Certified help
baby wearing
cloth diapering, etc.

This place is really aiming to take your home or birth center experience, and elevate it. They believe in caring for the whole birth process, from fertility, to pregnancy, to postpartum.

They also take your specific circumstances into consideration, like for childcare needs. Birthing at home or a birth center in the middle of the night is obviously unexpected. Daycare probably isn’t an option at that point and calling a relative or friend over may be stressful and unreliable.

So, they offer what is called Sibling Doulas. This service is essentially an adult who can be beside your child/children through the birth process. They will support and explain to your child what is happening to mom, on their appropriate age level of understanding. They will also be a great guide to say “hey, maybe Charlie needs a minute to go and play while mom continues to labor.” The role of the sibling doula is invaluable. A trained, trustworthy adult who is well educated in the Houston doula birthing world, supervising and supporting your children while you labor. What a genius idea and the solution to a problem that so many parents face!
