Job description

We're building a network of experienced birth and full-spectrum doulas to educate and guide expecting and new families throughout pregnancy, birth, and the postpartum period.
This is a 1099 independent contractor role and is not an employment (W-2) position. As an independent contractor, you will not be eligible for employee benefits, including but not limited to health insurance, paid time off, workers' compensation, or unemployment benefits. Pomelo Care will provide services to support your independent practice, such as client matching, billing, and administrative support.
As part of the Pomelo network, you will:
  • Educate and guide expecting and new families throughout pregnancy, birth, and the postpartum period.
  • Play a vital role in improving birth outcomes by ensuring that families feel supported and empowered during this transformative time.
  • Maintain timely and accurate documentation for visits and birth support.
  • Follow applicable documentation, privacy, quality, and compliance standards for services conducted through Pomelo.
To join Pomelo's growing network, you are/have:
  • You have completed certification and training as a birth and/or full-spectrum doula.
  • You have experience working as a doula with an in-depth understanding of pregnancy, childbirth, breastfeeding, and postpartum recovery.
  • You have strong verbal and written communication skills, with the ability to connect with families from diverse backgrounds both virtually and in-person.
  • You're comfortable using telehealth platforms, video conferencing tools, and electronic documentation systems.
  • You have availability for virtual and in-person work, including evenings and weekends, to accommodate the needs of families.
  • You are located in or able to serve one of our core service areas: Orange, Suffolk and Westchester county in New York.
Credentialing process & next steps:
Once you apply, our team will guide you through the credentialing process, which includes:
  • Meeting with someone from our recruitment team for a 30-minute video call.
  • Providing proof/verification of doula certification, NPI number, and Adult & Infant CPR/First Aid certification.
  • Providing proof of Medicaid ID.
  • Providing verification of personal liability insurance.
  • Completing a background screening.
Support for your doula practice:
By joining Pomelo, we will provide the support you need to focus on what you do best - caring for families.
  • Focus on Care, Not Paperwork: We handle the credentialing, billing, and administrative hassle of accepting insurance so you can receive reliable and timely payment for your work.
  • Connect with Patients: We provide client matching and outreach support to help you connect with families who need your services based on your availability and demand.
  • Comprehensive Support: You'll have access to administrative and technical support to navigate Pomelo's systems, as well as charting and documentation support to streamline your workflow.
  • Doula Community: You'll have access to a vibrant peer community of hundreds of doulas for support, shared learning, and connection.
  • Maintain Your Flexibility: You choose the days and times you make yourself available for Pomelo clients. You may accept or decline available opportunities, and Pomelo does not guarantee any minimum number of matches or compensation.

At Pomelo, we are committed to hiring the best team to improve outcomes for all mothers and babies, regardless of their background. We need diverse perspectives to reflect the diversity of problems we face and the population we serve. We look to hire people from a variety of backgrounds, including but not limited to race, age, sexual orientation, gender identity and expression, national origin, religion, disability, and veteran status.
