KARMA DOULA PROGRAM
for individuals with private health insurance/paying out of pocket
We believe everybody can benefit from doula services, quality childbirth education, access to great wellness practitioners, and loving support. That is why ALL our services and classes are available to everyone without Medicaid (state-sponsored) insurance on a sliding-scale fee.
Currently, private insurance plans don’t cover the cost of birth doula services. Our Karma Doula Program connects Everyday Miracles doulas with individuals interested in birth doula support, but who do not qualify for our Core Doula Program because they’re not on Medicaid. (NOTE: If you have a Medicaid (state-sponsored) insurance plan, please click here for more information about our Core Doula Program).
WHY WORK WITH EVERYDAY MIRACLES?
A whole community of support: We have an extraordinary team of qualified, competent, and compassionate doulas who are part of a larger community of Twin Cities birth professionals. That means you have access to a whole network of resources to make sure you have all the support and information you need throughout your pregnancy, birth, and beyond.
Access to high quality, comprehensive evidence-based education: We offer a wide range of comprehensive childbirth education options, birth and baby basics workshops, prenatal yoga classes and more, and Karma Doula Clients get exclusive discounts on our offerings. These classes are taught by certified doula instructors and focus on evidence-based information to help you prepare for the happiest, healthiest birth experience possible.
Giving back: As a nonprofit, we are committed to improving birth and reducing health disparities in our local communities, particularly for those that face increased risk for poor outcomes. By choosing to work with us, you are helping provide vital services such as doula support, education, and breastfeeding supplies to families who would not otherwise have access, thus creating a more compassionate, equitable community. All our doulas have made a commitment to working with low-income families, and your support ensures we can continue to do this essential, rewarding work. We know that healthy, peaceful births make for healthier families, and healthier families make for stronger communities.

TIMELINE
Our doulas’ availability tends to fill up a few months in advance. Starting the process of getting connected with a doula earlier in your pregnancy will help ensure that a variety of doulas are available around your birthing time.
