Offerings

As a proud Black Queer Mother that did not benefit from having a doula at her births, Kai humbly offers inclusive and compassionate care to all families. Kai define families as young parents, solo parents, and partnered parents. She specializes in serving families that are queer, transgender or nonbinary birthing people and people of color. If cost is an issue for you, please connect with Kai*. There may be other payment options or resources that she can refer you to. Kindred Soul currently attends births in East Bay cities.
