Is hiring a doula near me in Newark, NJ safe?

We advise you to take extra precautions when hiring a doula near you in Newark, NJ by running your own background check and by interviewing a handful of candidates.

Doulas can provide support in a few ways. You can hire a birth doula to assist you during birth, you can hire a postpartum doula to provide you with care after delivery, or you can hire a night doula (also known as an overnight doula) to keep an eye on your newborn while you get some much needed rest.

What types of questions should I ask when interviewing a doula near me in Newark, NJ?
When you’re looking to hire a doula near you in Newark, NJ, it can be really helpful to interview a few different candidates to learn more about their experience and the services they offer.
