Doula Mentoring
$50/1 Hour Session
If you are a new or aspiring doula, this service is for you if: you are overwhelmed by all of the tasks associated with launching your doula business (choosing a creative business name, registering your business, creating a website…) you need help figuring out ways to attract your ideal clients, you are tired of spending hours creating social media content that does not generate leads with clients, or you are wondering how to structure your business, what to do at prenatal meetings, and how to set up contracts. Together we will identify your short and long term goals as a doula and the action steps needed to successfully achieve them, brainstorm ways to combat any obstacles you are currently facing, like not knowing how to market yourself, or worrying about the inability to be on-call 24/7, and create a step-by-step plan on how to effortlessly navigate into the world of birth work.
