    Our Core Doula Program connects Everyday Miracles doulas, who have made a commitment to working with low-income families, with pregnant people who are interested in doula support. We are able to provide these services because of the Minnesota Doula Bill, which requires Minnesota Health Care Programs (MHCP) to cover doula services provided by certified doulas. Our Core Doula Program is for pregnant people with one of the Medicaid (state-sponsored) insurance plans.

    We believe everybody can benefit from doula services, quality childbirth education, access to great wellness practitioners, and loving support. That is why ALL our services and classes are available to everyone without Medicaid (state-sponsored) insurance on a sliding-scale fee. Our Karma Doula Program connects Everyday Miracles doulas with individuals interested in birth doula support, but who do not qualify for Medicaid. Karma Doula Clients get exclusive discounts on our offerings. Complete this form to express interest in our Karma Doula Program.
