Calm hands, and a phone that’s always on.

I’m Marisol Hayes. In six years I’ve been at 140 births. I’ll be at yours — from the first real contraction to the first good feed. In English or Spanish, wherever you’re giving birth.

Booking spring 2027. I take two birth clients a month so I'm never choosing between two labors. Two spots left for March.

What I do, and what it costs.

Prices are on this page because you shouldn’t have to email me to find them out.

Birth Support

$1,950

First baby · full labor support

Two prenatal visits at your kitchen table. Unlimited texts the whole pregnancy. On call for you from 38 weeks. I stay for the whole labor — not a shift, the whole thing. TENS unit if you want one. Two visits after, once you’re home.

Second Baby

$1,650

You’ve done this before

You’ve done this. You don’t need the full syllabus. One prenatal visit, same texting, same on-call, same me at the birth. Less prep, same presence.

What’s included →

Postpartum Support

$38/hr

or $240 per overnight

Daytime by the hour, or overnights so you can sleep for six straight hours. I hold the baby, run the laundry, make the food, and answer the question you’re too tired to Google.

What’s included →

Payment plans, no interest. HSA and FSA usually work — there’s one step, and I’ll walk you through it.

Hi, I’m Marisol.

I ran the front desk at a birth center for two years before I ever went into a room myself. I booked the appointments and I took the 3am calls. I watched about three hundred families walk in terrified.

The ones who did best had someone with them who’d seen it before.

So I went and saw it before. That was 2019. I’ve been in the room 140 times since.

I’m certified through DONA, my CPR is current, and I speak Spanish with your mother-in-law when she calls.

What actually happens.

From the first phone call to the drive home.

  1. 01

    We talk first — free, 20 minutes.

    You ask whatever you want. I ask your due date and where you're giving birth. Nobody signs anything.

  2. 02

    Two visits before, at your place.

    We write one page about what you want and what you're scared of. I meet your partner and show him where his hands go.

  3. 03

    You call. I come. I stay.

    On call from 38 weeks. Home first if you want, then the hospital — and I'm there for the whole labor, not a shift.

On a real site these link out to your actual Google, DoulaMatch and Yelp profiles. Marisol is fictional, so the ratings and links here are illustrative.

I laboured 31 hours. Marisol was there for 29 of them. At some point she started breathing with me without saying anything and I just — followed her. My husband finally slept because she told him to.
Dani R., Stone Oak · first baby, hospital
She talked to my mom in Spanish for twenty minutes and whatever she said, my mom stopped arguing with me about the birth plan. Worth the money for that alone.
Adriana V., Southside · second baby, birth center
We’re Air Force. She knew the TRICARE thing better than our own clinic did, and she filled out the form with me at my kitchen table.

Let’s talk. It’s free and it’s not a sales call.

Twenty minutes on the phone or coffee somewhere near you. You ask me things. I ask you about your due date. Nobody signs anything.

No obligation to move forward. I answer within a day.
