Birth Doula Support in Connecticut

Connecticut families — particularly in Fairfield County — are some of the most intentional birth planners in the tristate area. You research your OB carefully. You tour your hospital. You build a birth team.

YourCherish provides certified birth and postpartum doula support throughout Connecticut — with the same depth of experience and presence we bring to births in New York City and New Jersey.

Why CT Families Choose YourCherish

Fairfield County families often have connections to New York City — many commute there, have their OBs there, and are accustomed to the quality of service available in the city. YourCherish brings that same standard to Connecticut.

We have attended births at Greenwich Hospital, Stamford Hospital, and Yale New Haven, and are fully comfortable supporting families who prefer the quieter pace of a Connecticut hospital birth.

Home Birth Support in Connecticut

Connecticut has an active home birth community, particularly in Fairfield County. We provide full doula support for planned home births throughout southwestern Connecticut and can connect you with Connecticut-licensed home birth midwives.

Insurance and Benefits in Connecticut

Connecticut's HUSKY Health (Medicaid) program covers doula services for eligible enrollees. We also work with Carrot Fertility, Maven Clinic, Cleo, and HSA/FSA accounts.

Many CT families work for companies headquartered in NYC that offer Carrot or Maven as employee benefits — check your benefits portal if you haven't already.

What CT Families Say

"We live in Greenwich and were delivering at Greenwich Hospital. Olga came to our home in early labor, stayed with us for hours, and followed us to the hospital. The intimacy of having the same person for the whole experience — at home and in the delivery room — was something we hadn't expected to matter so much. It changed everything." — Caroline & William, Greenwich

"We found YourCherish while searching for a doula in Fairfield County. We assumed we'd have to settle for someone less experienced than the NYC doulas we'd been reading about. We didn't have to. Olga is the real thing." — Allison & James, Westport
