She is very knowledgeable and would be a great point of contact for you to see if there might be a post-partum doula would be be available and free to work with your family while you labor.

Hi! I had a great experience with several of the doulas from Roots of Labor Birth Collective but these two are my favorites:
Michi Arguedas was also my birth doula - she's amazing with babies and parents in the postpartum period. She's gentle and patient and loving, and working with her is like being enveloped in a big bubble of love that is exactly what you might need postpartum when all the hormones are raging - https://quetzaldoula.com/
Rebecca Orozco was my backup birth doula - in the postpartum period she would intuit exactly what I might need at any given moment, anticipating my hunger, baby's cues, a cup of tea, kind words of support when I felt at my lowest- https://doulamatch.net/profile/14533/rebecca-orozco
