Doula Mentoring
New parents deserve support… and so do new doulas!
Scheduled Mentoring
Ongoing support as you build your business and work with your own clients!
One-on-one support meetings - to help you plan prenatal or postpartum visits with your clients, review paperwork, offer professional feedback, and/or process your clients’ birth experiences
Individualized education based on your specific needs, such as working with a client scheduling a cesarean birth, planning a home birth, coping with pregnancy complications, etc.
Support during meetings with your clients - in-person or virtual, to observe and provide feedback about client interactions, and to facilitate communication with more challenging client situations or relationships
Prenatal and/or postpartum job shadowing, when available - taking you with me to observe meetings with my own clients, followed by debriefing afterwards, to expand and enhance your own client communication skills
Fees: $100 first session (up to 90 minutes); $50/hour for subsequent sessions. Includes follow-up email and links to other resources, as needed.
On-Call Mentoring
Doula for the doula! My years of birth experience are just a phone call away, when you’re with a client in labor and need encouragement or ideas.
On-call package includes:
One prenatal meeting - allows me to learn about your client and answer any questions you have as you prepare for the birth
24-hour on-call phone/text support during the birth - just text when they go into labor and I will keep my phone near me until baby’s here!
One postpartum meeting - gives you the pleasure of sharing a birth story, and the opportunity to have any lingering questions answered
Fee: $250/birth
