Help a first time mother hire a doula

Donation protected

Hello, my name is Gabriella Wilson.  I am currently 28 weeks pregnant living in a 1 bedroom apartment with my husband in Fayetteville Arkansas. I have been especially struggling during this pregnancy physically and financially. I currently am attending esthetics school 40 hours a week while also working 20 hours a week at a job that only pays $10/hr. Leaving me with less than $400 every 2 weeks which gets spent on bills as soon as I am paid. The physical and emotional toll has been very difficult to handle.

 My husband has recently taken on an overnight job trying to make enough to where I can leave my job as I get closer to delivery. Any help would be a blessing. There are many things that we are in need of not only for ourselves but for our daughter coming in only 3 months. We live 3 hours away from any close family, sharing one car trying to manage both of our daily schedules.  Right now we just do not have the funds saved to up and move closer to family. When we moved we did not know I was pregnant or we would have stayed where we were at. 

I would love to raise this money to pay for a doula here in NWA. Since we cannot move until our lease is up next summer, it would be a tremendous blessing to have a doula available to assist me and my husband when our daughter comes as we are first time parents with no family or friends close by to come by frequently to emotionally and physically assist us into transitioning into parenthood. 

Any donations are appreciated, if I cannot raise the amount needed to hire a doula in time the money will 100% invest into essentials for our daughter.
