The Caring Collective is NOW OPEN
Appointments: 0491 758 428
IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO CONSIDER ME AS YOUR DOULA - LETS CHAT! BOOK IN A FREE PHONE CALL!
TO ASSESS IF DATES AND LOCATION ARE VIABLE.
IF SO, TO MAKE A TIME FOR THE 30 MINUTE IN-PERSON CAFE MEET AND GREET.
Meet face to face! We use this short time to make sure we give each other good vibes! I'll ask you what you hope a Doula can provide for your experience. You can ask me questions to make sure I'm the right Doula for you.
Don't decide on the spot! You then have 48 hours to decide if you would like to go ahead. Then the real business begins!
