Dear Friends,

I hope this message finds you well and healthy. I am writing to share some important news concerning my services and the adjustments needed to continue providing the highest level of care and support to my cherished clients.

Effective on and after November 1, 2025, there will be an increase in the price for my most popular doula package; The Joyful Birth Package. This decision has not been made lightly and comes after much careful consideration and reflection on the needs of my community, my clients and the sustainability of this practice.

After 7 years in business without any adjustments to my rates, it has become necessary to increase the price of the Joyful Birth Package to $1800.

This price adjustment reflects the fair market value of comprehensive doula services in today's competitive landscape. Over the years, the demands for high-quality support during childbirth have grown, and the costs associated with delivering these services have also increased. By aligning my rates with those of other reputable doula services, I can ensure that I remain competitive while preserving the sustainability and integrity of my practice.

I deeply value the trust you place in me during such an intimate and significant time in your life, and I am committed to openness and fairness. As my business grows, this rate adjustment will enable me to continue offering the high-quality, dedicated care for which I am known. It will also allow me to invest in further improving my services and ensuring that every family receives the support they deserve during their most transformative moments.

I understand that this news may come as an unwelcome surprise, and I want to assure you that my commitment to you remains unwavering. I am available to discuss any concerns you may have and to explore options that can best meet your needs. Prices for Childbirth Education classes will not be changing and participants in the 6 week CBE class who choose Birth Doula Services will continue to enjoy a 10% discount.

Thank you for your understanding and continued trust. It is an honor to support you and your families, and I look forward to continuing this journey together.

Warm regards,

Chris Aguilar

Owner/Doula
