Here's the truth about birthwork...
Most doulas burn out within 2-3 years. They overbook, undercharge, and don’t understand how to positively practice within a hospital system that doesn’t always value the work that doulas do. Those of us who are lucky enough to have successful careers in a wildly unpredictable industry had to figure this out on our own.
But, guess what? You don’t have to!

Are you asking yourself...
-
How do I take this excitement and turn it into a sustainable career that’s both emotionally and financially fulfilling?
-
How do I learn the nuance of supporting a client through this massive transformation while also positively and confidently partnering with their hospital care team?
-
How do I set up my prenatal education and support package so that by the time labor starts, my clients feel like they might not need me as much as they thought they would.
-
How do I craft my doula package to fit within the insurance billing structure?

We've got you covered!
In our intensive 12-week program you’ll work 1:1 with both Gemma and Betty, two seasoned doulas who have more than 15 years of shared experience. Prior to building this thriving partnership, Gemma and Betty each ran robust solo doula practices and eventually joined forces to create Pivot Point Birth Co.
We have cracked the code on how to thrive in the hospital ecosystem while ensuring that our clients feel heard, supported, and safe in the hospital. Understanding how to navigate the hospital is critical in the era of insurance-funded birthwork.
Together we have supported hundreds of families but, the work doesn't feel complete without also supporting the next generation of doulas. We feel it's vital to the health of our local birth community that seasoned doulas hand down their systems and strategies so the next generation can thrive. In fact, we don't just want you to thrive. We want you to elevate birth work. That's truly how we impact birth for all families.
