Doula Collective
Attracting clients and building a client portfolio is one of the most difficult parts of starting a service based business. At LTB we have been working on just that for the last three years.
Now the enquires flow in month by month. I would love to be able to support you by offering you referrals for clients that are your ideal fit, providing opportunities to continue your professional development and skills, as well as finding your footing in our community, both professionally and with families.
Our goal is to attract clients who value the knowledge of trustworthy, compassionate professionals and resonate with shared learned experiences during what can be an unpredictable and vulnerable time of life. They prioritise privacy, feeling heard and understood while offered guidance specific to their own requirements, and are approaching motherhood with instinctive, natural and conscious parenting values, reflected within your own core beliefs. Consultations with Let’s Talk Birth aim to shed a positive light on childbirth and provide physical, emotional and spiritual support individual to each family circumstance, instilling reassurance and calm, whilst building strong emotional connections.
Signs We'll Be A Good Fit
You’re a doula who is searching for support and guidance.
You are a doula who wants to stand out in our community.
You want to support families through their most transformative experiences.
You value personal and professional growth, you are passionate and willing to learn.
You use evidence, personal experience and intuition to guide you.
Get Clear
Clear your mind, revitalise your focus.
We often use the expression "You cannot pour from an empty cup" when talking to doulas. Our work is so vital and yet we often give so much of ourselves that we are left feeling depleted, exhausted and if we are not careful, burnt out and resentful.
Our monthly Q&A sessions are designed for doulas and birth workers to replenish - to fill that cup - so that we leave feeling recharged, revitalised and ready to go back out there and support people in a way that we love.
During this session we will prioritise connection, expression, feeling heard, held and received. There will be time for meditation, reflection and processing. At the same time providing support for your peers, so that we can all leave feeling uplifted and revitalised.
Get Connected
One of the best ways to gain referrals and build your own portfolio is to connect with professionals in your area. This can be tricky to manage with conflicting schedules and many people trying to network separately. Being a member of the LTB professional network will enable and encourage you to build your networking skills. You will have visibility to both our community and to other professionals by accessing this opportunity.
Grow
In our monthly doula workshops you will have direct access to continuing your professional development. This is a core part of strengthening and maintaining your skills in this demanding line of work.
The workshops will be presented both in person and online, they will be hosted by a range of providers and you will also have the opportunity to teach your peers about your interest area!
Continuing your professional development enables you to reinforce and enhance your current skills while reducing any knowledge gaps. By doing so your will develop your self confidence, this can give you an edge when it comes to certain situations e.g. client interviews and professional networking events.
