Description
Your experienced doula Coach will mentor you through nine topics. Participants will have creative projects to complete before each meeting. This original curriculum is unique to Doulaing The Doula, and was designed by Amy Gilliland to be insightful, fun, and educational. Join others in a supportive atmosphere as you grow your doula selves!
Each meeting includes some prep work and discussion about culture, colonization, or other relevant topic to doula support. In our readings, group work, and time together, we strive to be respectful of all peoples and their differing experiences.
The topics covered are:
- Week 1: Who Am I? Who Is Supporting Me?
- Week 2: Getting Out of My Own Way and Who Are My People?
- Week 3: What is my Vision for My Doula Practice? What is my Purpose?
- Week 4: How Am I Compensated? What are my Rewards?
- Week 5: How Will People Know What I’m Doing? Getting the Word Out
- Week 6: How will I Organize Everything? How Do I Implement my Plan?
- Week 7: Beginning The Client Relationship
- Week 8: Doulaing in Times of Grief and Loss
- Week 9: Creating A Team with Medical Staff; Revisit Your Vision
