Hi Jasmine,
I am a trainee doula sor in Perth. I looked into something similar earlier but due to uni studies never really followed thru. I can give you the details of the YPAVE (Young, Pregnant and Very Excited) program. I'd definately be interested in helping out if you want to run with this.

Just wanted to pop my head in and say I think this is an awesome idea. And I second the idea of trying to link in with existing teen pregnancy / young mum programs. I'm in Vic so don't know the specifics in Perth but these are often run out of larger community welfare agencies or womens health type orgs. With the right support, I definitely think you could get some funding. Good luck.
