The only prerequisite to attend the workshop is to read The Birth Partner(6th Edition) by Penny Simkin. If you have the time, I suggest you do as many of the readings as possible, so the materials will be somewhat familiar to you. This workshop will satisfy both the Childbirth Course & The Birth Doula Workshop requirements for DONA Certification.

The tuition for the three day workshop is $695.00 (Early bird discount of $50 if paid in full by April 20,2025)and this includes the Birth Doula Manual and additional educational materials. 

Please bring lunch and snacks.

A deposit of $100.00 is required to hold your space. This deposit is non-refundable/non-transferable. If you need a payment plan, please call me to discuss. The balance of tuition is due by June 6,2025.

Cancellation Policy: If you cancel after June 6,2025 – tuition is non-refundable. If I have space in a future class, I will credit the money received for an additional $150 administrative fee.

If you cancel prior to June 6,2025, tuition less the $100 deposit will be refunded. By registering below you acknowledge and understand the cancellation policy.

The workshop will be held in Charlotte,NC. Unfortunately, I cannot accommodate children-only breastfeeding babes in arms 0-3 months. There is a morning break, lunch break and afternoon break each day if someone needs to bring a breastfeeding infant in.
