Services
Birth Doula Support
My birth doula support is always personal and never one-size-fits-all. I take on only a limited number of clients so I can be fully present, offering steady guidance, preparation, and reassurance throughout pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. Together, we explore your vision, your questions, and your needs—building confidence and creating a plan that feels right for you. From our first conversations through the moment you meet your baby and beyond, you’ll have continuous, compassionate support and the benefit of my tools, resources, and experience every step of the way.
Placenta Encapsulation
Placenta encapsulation is available for families who wish to honor this traditional practice and explore its potential benefits, including energy, mood, and nourishment in the postpartum period. I provide safe, thoughtful preparation of your placenta into easy-to-take capsules. Placenta encapsulation is a simple, meaningful way to honor and integrate your birth experience as you transition into new parenthood.
This service is $275 and includes pickup and delivery within 25 miles of 32224 or 32084. A $25 travel fee applies beyond that.
Prenatal Planning & Virtual Doula Support
For families seeking guidance before or during birth, I offer flexible virtual support tailored to your needs. Prenatal consultations are available for choosing your birth team, asking questions, creating preferences, and preparing for labor, birth, and postpartum. These can be one-time sessions or ongoing check-ins throughout your pregnancy. I also provide virtual childbirth education, prenatal meetings, and even real-time labor support, offering reassurance and informed guidance no matter where you are in the world.
Consultations are $125/hour, with additional fees depending on the level of virtual support desired.
Travel Doula Support
I am available to travel for births throughout Florida, where I have deep roots and experience, as well as to Los Angeles, a city I know well and frequently serve. Beyond these locations, I am open to traveling wherever families feel called to invite me. Travel fees and typical expenses such as airfare and accommodations are discussed during our consultation so we can create a plan that works best for your needs.
Classes & Partnerships
Childbirth Education
The Well-Informed Birth Team offers an in-person, 4 hour “express” childbirth education class designed to empower you and your partner for any birth setting—home, birth center, or hospital. This single, interactive session isn’t a lecture; it’s a conversation in a comfortable, welcoming environment where questions are encouraged, intuition is valued alongside evidence, and practical tools are shared from years of hands-on experience supporting hundreds of births. By the end of the class, you’ll leave feeling confident, informed, and prepared to navigate your birth and postpartum journey with clarity and support. Classes are held at the St. Augustine Birth Collective and The Playgarden in Jacksonville Beach, FL, with a standard fee of $300 (doula clients receive $100 off).
The Well-Informed Birth Team
The Well-Informed Birth Team is a collaboration between doulas Katharine Deeb and Alyssa Megeath, bringing together their experience, knowledge, and intuition to support families in holistic, evidence-based childbirth and postpartum education. Beyond classes, this partnership also offers co-doula support, providing families with double the expertise, guidance, and presence during birth. Together, we create a supportive, empowering environment where families can feel informed, confident, and fully prepared for their birth journey.
