Supporting Your Client When You Can't Be There

From Penny & Katie:
We decided to offer a webinar for doulas who can’t be with their clients in the hospital, but who, along with their clients, want to try having labor support remotely. Penny has done this a couple of times – a birth in the car for people who were trying to get to the hospital and had their baby in the car!; someone from class who had moved to Norway and was in labor there; and several times when people were in early labor at home and very scared (just coaching them thru the trip to the hospital). We're trying to emphasize the things doulas can do without being able to touch or even see their clients. We're not experts, but we believe a doula at a distance may very well be better than no doula at all.
Our goal is to make this webinar as accessible as possible as we know doulas and their families are being hit particularly hard by the effects of coronavirus. With this in mind, we've priced the webinar very low: just $10. However, if this is a stretch for your budget, please use the free option and have the registration fee waived. We're doing this on the honor system - no documentation or application needed. If your budget is stretched thin right now because of coronavirus (or any reason), please use the free option. If your budget allows, please use the regular registration rate.
NOTE: If you cannot attend the webinar live next week, you will receive an email to the recording. Only those people who register before the webinar will be given access to the recording. Make sure you sign-up!
