I would love to Sara but I havent the foggiest idea how to find them and Ive been a slacker with my study lately Im starting to wonder if I made the right choice becoming a doula because I cant see how there are enough women to be clients for 5+ doula's in Townsville.

There are plenty of women! Unfortunetely, not many women in Townsville have heard of Doula's. Nearly every person I meet and tell them what I do looks at me weird when I say the word "Doula". But once they realise what it is I do, they think its a great thing.

At the moment there are only 2 of us who are actively taking on clients. The other 3 are either TTC themselves or are busy raising their own families. They are available as back-up Doula's though.

Well I guess at the moment you should just focus on yourself. The birth of your next baby should solidify whether you want to be a Birth Worker or not. Enjoy your pregnancy while it last hun.

I never knew what a Doula was until i meet Sarah LoL, do use actually work for the hospitals or for urselfs? And only get jobs when some1 calls you?
I would love to go to uni and do midwifery i think it would be such an amazing job....but i dont even no were to start!

Sara and Anna, Maybe you should approach Babies Galore, Bay Bee Cino and Lollipos to see if you can put up advertising in the windows or something. Then your target Audience will see them.

I hope I get that this week. The travel system I want is on sale at Target! could save over $100! DH wont let me layby it until I have a sticky

Looking forward to Friday!!!

Tanya, Bummer that that centre only goes from 15 months! Em is 14 months next week!
