Important Information About Blossom's Doula Referral Service
The doulas participating in Blossom's referral service are independent contractors who pay for a listing on Blossom's website. Each doula independently sets their own services and rates.
Blossom does not conduct background checks, endorse any particular doula or guarantee the qualifications, services or actions of any provider. We strongly encourage families to interview doulas directly, ask about their experience and qualifications, request references and discuss whether a background check has been completed before hiring a professional to work with your family.
How it Works for Doulas
Doula registration cost: $0
(This is a perk included with provider membership. Must be a Provider Member to participate.)
Doula capacity: 6 doulas total
We’ll try to keep a close ratio of birth doulas and postpartum doulas (3:3 or 4:2)
Sign Ups:

Signups are first come, first serve. Spots are limited, so thanks for your patience and understanding!
