I was looking through so many posts the other day, and was very interested to see what fees are throughout the United States.
I am in New York, Long Island our fees are:
Birth between 800-1600
postpartum 30-35/hour
What are the fees in your area?

Here in Alabama, the fees seem to be between $200 and $500 for births, but there are always exceptions...

I Live in Lubbock, TX. My fee was $400 but the other doula that was in town was charging (and had been for her whole 5 years) $500, so when she quit a month or so ago, I upped my fee to $500. Another woman I know started her cert process recently and is charging $500, also. I don't think there are any pp doulas here, but I'd like to add that to my business. Don't know what I'd charge...probably the $20-$25/hr, though

there are brand new doulas here in atlanta who charge the same as some of the most experienced ones...in my group we have doulas who charge as little as $450 and i am the most expensive at $625... we charge $25/hr for postpartum.
I am in austin texas. I have been told that I am smack in the middle charging $600. I know of doulas charging nothing-150 and I know of at least one charging 1200. most I think are in the 500-800 range.
postpartum care ranges from 20-35 hr.
