In response to the COVID-19 pandemic and the hospital restrictions being placed on birthing families with regard to the number of support persons allowed in the room, we at Sacramento Cornerstone Childbirth, want to make sure that you and your partner or other support person have all of the most effective tools that doulas use to help their families cope with labor - right at your fingertips.

​As childbirth educators and doulas, we recognize the importance of reducing anxiety in the birth room, and how that positively impacts most birth experiences. Our specially curated kits - valued at over $200 - will equip you with all the tools you and your support person will need in order to create a calming birth environment and help you cope with labor. While our kits do not take the place of having a doula by your side during your labor and birth, our tools can be used with ease on your own or in conjunction with fabulous virtual doula support.

​Our Doula in a Box kits are directly aligned with the coping measures we teach in our comprehensive childbirth education class series. Class participants have all of the background information they need in order to feel confident using the tools in our kits! 

By reserving your kit today, you eliminate the need to gather many of these one-time use products and reduce your out-of-pocket expenses as you prepare for your birth.

 Included With Your Rental... 

A one-hour virtual consult with Amy or Jenn - during which we will teach you how to maximize the use of the kit contents, as well as answer any general labor and birth questions you may have!

Complimentary contactless drop-off two weeks before your estimated due date;
​and pick-up from your home after your baby is born!
