Wondering if your baby is “too attached”? In the first 6 months, babies—especially breastfed infants—are biologically wired for constant closeness. Discover why this is normal and supported by infant development science.

An Invitation to Reflect and Speak Aloud

This is an invitation, not a directive.

Reflect on your pricing.
Look honestly at your scope.
Calculate your real hours.
Notice where guilt, fear, or comparison are shaping your decisions.

And then, talk about it.

Talk to other doulas. Ask what they charge. Ask how they decided. Ask what’s working and what’s not. Share your fears. Share your numbers. Share your questions.

We do not build sustainable care practices alone.

“Addressing the disparities in perinatal and infant wellbeing is not only an issue of healthcare, it is a matter of social justice. By advocating for systemic change, supporting culturally competent care, and uplifting Black voices in healthcare, we can create a future where Black families have the same opportunities for healthy pregnancies and births as any other group.” - Keegan Prempeh
