A series of three mini-workshops for new and experienced doulas in New Mexico led by Pam England In your initial doula training you were introduced to techniques that support and nurture the parents.

In Doula From Within III, you will learn a simple, fresh approach to conducting a lively prenatal interview or appointment that will make a lasting impression. This workshop is for experienced doulas who strive for excellence and who want to make a difference-starting with the prenatal interview!
