Hey Nikki, that is a great idea! Have a look here for a lady that may be running NZ courses this year]]> Fri, 28 Jul 2006 10:43:14 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3268&PID=61623&title=doula#61623 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3268&PID=61615&title=doula#61615 Author: newmum

The lady who took my antenatal classes through North Shore Hospital is a doula, or at least she was - her name is Sharyn and I've got her phone number somewhere... ]]> Thu, 27 Jul 2006 11:02:40 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3268&PID=61405&title=doula#61405 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3268&PID=61394&title=doula#61394 Author: nikkitheknitter

Heya,
Most of you know about my little 'save the world' trip that seems to be hanging round longer than I expected...
I've been getting annoyed at having a degree that is of little to no use in this mission to help people.
So, I'm thinking about doing some training to become a doula (as I can't justify doing another 3 year degree to become a midwife). This is just an idea at this stage...
and if I did it, I wouldn't be one of those peace, love and harmoney doulas. (Not to say that they are bad... just can't quite imagine myself being the type). But anywayyyy... does anyone know a NZ doula? or how to go about getting training???

P.S. For those who don't know what a doula is (I didn't until recently)... it's a trained birth assistant who works with the mother with birthing techniques and advocates on her behalf for birth plans etc and helps with postnatal care. Just a support person really.]]> Thu, 27 Jul 2006 10:20:43 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3268&PID=61394&title=doula#61394
