I accept Virginia Medicaid and Carrot!

If you are BIPOC and/or a T/GNC person and cannot afford to pay for services please email me! All you have to say is that you are BIPOC and/or T/GNC and cannot afford the sliding scale fees, we will explore your options together.

My Sliding Scale

Clients may not have familial support or job security. Paying a higher fee would result in financial hardship for them. They may pay an hourly rate of 35 to 39 $/hour.

Amaryllis

Clients may be going back and forth about deciding whether or not they can afford a doula, they have the means to hire support with some sacrifice but not financial hardship. They may pay an hourly rate of 40 to 49 $/hour.

Poppy

Clients have a budget set aside for childcare assistance. (doulas, nannies, lactation consultants etc). They may pay an hourly rate of 50 to 60 $/hour.

Redistribution

If you would like to donate to fund a fellow’s doula care, you may do so on PayPal by donating to Banger BirthCare or @laalidoula. Any donations to this account will be used to cover the cost of doula care services for BIPOC or T/GNC people who cannot afford to pay an hourly rate.

“Reparations are long overdue and are a crucial tool in closing the racial wealth divide and healing from white supremacy. Reparations should not focus on individual acts, such as fundraisers but rather on institutional and systemic accountability. The term reparations is used predominantly as an acknowledgment of the immense intergenerational harm inflicted upon Indigenous and Black communities, and thus the repair that is due. Redistribution is a more general act relating to the current unjust distribution of wealth and our class system. Within the current economic system in which wealth generates more wealth and debt generates more debt, redistribution is an ongoing necessary practice to prevent further wealth accumulation.”
