Contract for Antepartum Doula Services

This agreement is between __________________________________ (client) and Kate Hogeland for the purpose of providing antepartum doula care.

I will help with practical support including preparing simple meals and snacks, answering the phone and door if desired, running errands, helping with other children, tidying, and compionship. The tasks I provide each day will depend on the priorities discussed by all parties before beginning services and on your particular needs that day.

I am happy to do some basic food preparation or light housework. Food preparation may consist of sandwiches, oatmeal, eggs, etc.  Cleaning may consist of laundry for mom and children, sweeping, picking up toys, or dusting in areas. Kitchen cleanup may include emptying the dishwasher and wiping down counter tops. I do not do major housecleaning tasks such as windows, cleaning of bathrooms, or yard work.

As an Antepartum Doula, I will NOT transport you or any member of your family.  However, I can ride with you if you need me to go somewhere with you. 

I do Not diagnose any medical conditions for mother, but will refer you to an appropriate health care provider if I notice anything of concern.

My fees for Antepartum Doula services are  dollars per hour.  . If you request that I run errands for you on my way to your home, the hour begins upon arrival at the first stop.  I require a minimum of 15 hours to be completed within two weeks.  Of course, if you would like to purchase more than 15 hours we can arrange as many as you need.

A one hundred dollar deposit is required when you sign this contract.  If you need to cancel 50% of the deposit will be returned.  You will be billed weekly for my services. Your invoice will include a summary of hours for that week. Payment is due upon receipt of invoice.

.In the rare event that I need to cancel a visit, I will call and either reschedule or, if you would prefer, find a replacement for the day.
