michiana doula care

So I thought I'd tell you a little more about our lay doula program we're working on. My other doula friend and I are both certified, her thru DONA and I'm thru CBI and Wonderfully made. We looked thru all of our curriculum and decided to write our own, condensed version.

After we finish that we will hold small workshops to train the other volunteers. These volunteers are also the trained councelors at our center. They won't come o/ w/ a certificate that they could get hired w/. But they will get something from us saying they have gone thru our program. And they will confidantly be able to support the women who come into the center needing help.

It's something that we feel strongly about. We feel like it completes the circle and allows us to build a relationship w/ them. I think it's going to be great. We also presented to a local dr.s office that alot of our clients use and they are very supportive of us. That goes a long way for me. I wasn't sure what kind of response we would get from them.
