Birth & Postpartum Care

​

Whealthy is the perinatal care arm of Including Inclusion

​

This offering is built for clients who value clarity, discretion, and care that works without commentary.

​

People come to Whealthy because they want support that is capable, steady, and responsive. They are not seeking affirmation, framing, or persuasion. They are looking for care that respects their intelligence, their time, and their lived reality—and delivers accordingly.

​

Whealthy provides trauma‑informed, highly individualized, concierge‑level support across pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. The work is direct, grounded, and adaptive, designed to meet complexity without judgment and intensity without drama.

​

Philosophy of Care

​

Trauma‑informed care is the baseline.

​

Support is shaped by the understanding that past experiences, stress load, power dynamics, and context influence how the body responds to pregnancy, labor, and recovery. Care adjusts in real time to what is happening—physically, emotionally, and situationally—without assumption or interpretation.

​

Whealthy care prioritizes:

• Safety and steadiness

• Informed, unpressured decision‑making

• Clear communication in high‑stakes moments

• Respect for boundaries, privacy, and autonomy

 

The aim is simple: care that is competent, calm, and useful when it matters most.

​

Pricing Philosophy

Whealthy care is priced to reflect access, availability, and depth of support.

Client volume is intentionally limited to ensure responsiveness, continuity, and presence—especially during unpredictable periods such as late pregnancy, labor, and early postpartum. Pricing reflects the skill required to provide trauma‑informed care in complex, high‑stakes environments.

​

For many clients, this investment supports stability: fewer stressors, clearer communication, and a more supported recovery.

​

FAQs

​

Why does this level of care cost what it does?

This is concierge support rather than volume‑based care. Pricing reflects limited availability, extended on‑call coverage, customization, and the ability to respond fully when it matters most.

​

Is this appropriate if I value privacy and discretion?

Yes. Care is designed to be quiet, respectful, and non‑intrusive.

​

Do you work alongside medical teams?

Yes. Support focuses on communication, consent, and clarity while respecting clinical roles.
