Let’s Meet
We love meeting and encouraging new families! It’s important for you to choose a doula who you feel comfortable with and wholeheartedly believe will give you the support you are looking for in helping you navigate the early days of parenthood.
The best way to get to know us is to schedule a one-on-one consultation with a Cradled in Love Doula. Simply complete our contact form and we will be in touch to schedule your complimentary initial consultation. If time is limited, we are happy to schedule a phone or video chat, too!
Your Postpartum Doula is Ready to Serve You
Our amazing doula team is ready to serve you in the Upstate area of South Carolina (Greenville, Spartanburg, Laurens, Anderson). Our doulas will happily assist as you learn about caring for your baby while allowing you to be able to better meet your own needs (you know, like sleep!).
With a Cradled in Love Postpartum Doula, you have a whole team to support you! You will choose your Primary Doula who will be your main support doula while having Backup Doulas available in the event you need bonus hours and your Primary Doula is unavailable.
Your Cradled in Love Doula meets the highest stands of care, knowledge, support, and compassion. In additional to professional training and continued education, the Cradled in Love Team has mothered 19 children combined.
You will be in good hands when you (and baby) are Cradled in Love.
