Every single doula, newborn care specialist, and provider at National Baby Co. has been personally vetted and interviewed by owners, Chelsea & Lauren. When screening each provider we verify formal training and/or certification in their field, conduct a thorough background check, review personal & professional references, confirm CPR + First Aid certification, receive a copy of their personal liability insurance for our files and conduct a face-to-face interview.

Trust that when you receive a match through National Baby Co. that you’ll be connecting with a top notch professional and receiving the most compassionate care through pregnancy, birth & postpartum.

National Baby Co offers complimentary doula matching. You will not pay NatBaby a fee when you hire your doula matches. When you are ready to find a doula, newborn care specialist, sleep coach, or lactation specialist, our maternity concierge will provide you with your custom matches within the communicated time. All payments of birth and/or postpartum doula, sleep consulting and additional services are reserved directly through the individual providers.

Yes! We are very familiar with Carrot Fertility, Maven Clinic, Progyny, and other insurance or benefit providers. If you’re looking for a doula that qualifies for reimbursement with Carrot Fertility, Maven Clinic, or other benefits providers, please note in your inquiry form what benefits are covered and if there are any specific criteria your doula/newborn care specialist needs to meet to qualify and we will match you accordingly. For benefits providers like this, you can expect to pay out of pocket to book services and your doula can provide documentation and an itemized invoice to submit for reimbursement.

Yes! We have MANY childbirth and parenting educators on our team who can provide both private or group classes, as well as customized consultations for prenatal and postpartum planning.

We are currently unable to match families with doulas where insurance pays out after the service is rendered, rather than reimburses the family directly. All doulas on our team require payment upon reserving care.

If you have Carrot Fertility or a similar benefits provider, we have many doulas who have been approved and many more who would qualify for coverage. Many clients have also been successful in utilizing HSA/FSA funds to cover their doula fees. We recommend you speak to your insurance company directly to find out the necessary steps to get your doula's fees covered or reimbursed.

You will have 3 options for payment:

1 - Private Pay: You will pay your doula or specialist directly based on the pricing you discuss.

2. Carrot Fertility or Other Benefit Provider: Please share any specific criteria your doula must meet, along with the reimbursable amount. Your doula can provide you an invoice for reimbursement through your benefit provider.

3. Reimbursement: You may qualify for reimbursement depending on your insurance policy and coverage. Your doula can provide you an itemized invoice to submit for reimbursement. Please note, doulas are not medical billers so cannot bill your insurance directly.
