Hey @officedepot, filled out a review of my local store, but no option to have someone contact me. You'll know it's me when you see the sentence "There seems to be a bro-culture building at this store where women business owners are treated with disrespect and condescension."

@YourDoulaBag We do have a few clients who are covered under private insurance plans run by their church. They value doulas! #LamazeChat

[Birth Kalamazoo @BirthKzoo]

@YourDoulaBag Agreed, #doulas more likely to be covered by flex accounts than insurance at this point. #LamazeChat

A7 $500 - $2000US is a typical range, occasionally more in larger cities. Need to keep moving fees up to be sustainable. #LamazeChat

There are no ghosts in hospice care- why do all #birthpros need to be parents? #LamazeChat https://t.co/GVensJXuVh

A6 Look for an in-depth training, not quick and dirty. You need great doula skills to be successful. Invest the time. #LamazeChat

[Birth Kalamazoo @BirthKzoo]

@LamazeOnline Very different skill sets, but complementary! + cross-marketing ops, good to serve families in many ways. #LamazeChat
