Board-Certified Birth Support,
Integrated Into Your Care Model.
A collective of 47 credentialed doulas embedding seamlessly into OB/GYN practices, hospital L&D departments, and corporate benefits programs — reducing cesarean rates, improving patient satisfaction scores, and closing continuity-of-care gaps.

Plugs Into Your Existing
Care Infrastructure.
No new portals. No parallel documentation systems. Our integration layer speaks your EHR's native language — so doula support appears in the chart where your clinical team already works.
Scheduling API
REST and HL7 FHIR-compatible scheduling endpoints. Doula availability syncs bidirectionally with your EHR calendar. Epic, Cerner, and athenahealth integrations live in under 72 hours.
EMR Compatibility
Doula visit notes flow directly into the patient record as structured observations. SNOMED-coded entries. No copy-paste, no fax, no gap in the longitudinal record.
On-Call Coverage
Every birth is covered. A secondary doula is automatically assigned as on-call backup for every active case, with a 20-minute response SLA for in-hospital deployments.
Credentialing & Compliance
All practitioners carry active DONA or CAPPA certification, facility-specific privileging, and malpractice coverage. Credentialing packets delivered to your medical staff office pre-integration.
"The integration handshake was complete in 48 hours. Our residents now see doula notes in the same workflow as nursing assessments — it's changed how we think about the care team entirely."
— Dr. Amara Okonkwo, Chief of Obstetrics, Northview Medical Center
Trusted by Clinical Leaders
Across Every Care Setting.
From Level III trauma centers to freestanding birthing centers to Fortune 500 benefits packages — our integration model adapts to your facility's volume, culture, and clinical protocols.
"We piloted doula integration in our L&D unit expecting modest gains. What we observed was a 23-point jump in HCAHPS communication scores and a measurable reduction in our primary cesarean rate within the first two quarters. The data convinced our CMO to expand system-wide."

Dr. Yolanda Ferreira
VP, Women's Services
Cascadia Regional Health System
Level II Trauma Center · 3,200 annual births
"Adding doula support to our family-leave package was the highest-engagement benefits addition in five years. Utilization exceeded projections by 340% in Q1. Our benefits broker is now recommending it to every client in our sector."

Marcus Whitfield
Director of Total Rewards
Meridian Financial Group
Fortune 500 · 14,000 covered employees
"Our preferred-provider roster is now built around the Doula Collective. When families ask us who to call at 2 a.m. when contractions start, this is the answer. Their on-call coverage model has never missed a birth in 18 months."
