Catholic Doula Pricing change and bonus items when you enroll...

We have decided to raise our prices this fall, but we didn't want to go up too high. So, we raised most of the classes by $50 or so and the Fertility doula one is $100 more. So, I have taken down the birth shop page till I can get all the changes up on the website and make this less confusing to someone who would just first time land on our website. We do have wonderful payment plans that most doula courses do not offer. We now have 2 options - a 3 month payment plan option and a 6 month payment plan option for birth and postpartum doula courses (plus other courses will also have payment plan options.) I also will be starting up a Bundle Page soon and that will show you our bundle discounts for taking 2-3 classes together - the more you bundle, the more you get a discounted rate- starts from around 15%-20% off! Will we still offer partial scholarships? Yes, we will still offer partial scholarships occasionally - but I think I am going to have a seasonal open and close dates for those scholarships - if you miss the window, then you can request to be put on the next opening window for that! Raising our prices means we can offer further discounts for needy students - please do not take advantage of us - we will know - please only request a scholarship if a 6 month payment plan will not work for your family. 
Cost of Birth doula is now $600 (vs. $555 previous) and Cost of Postpartum doula is now $655 (vs. $600 or $555 depending on when you looked last.) 
Bonus Items we will be now offering for our enrollments:
#1 Breastfeeding Class Bonus...
For birth doula and postpartum doula students both, we are adding in a special Breastfeeding For Doulas Class which will be hosted in Thinkific Classroom area. This special class will be a short training over breastfeeding for doulas and you receive a certificate of completion when you finish the course. Note: You do not have to finish this course before finishing your doula certification - we do highly recommend that you finish it for your learning. We think this class will help students who especially are not mother and have never breastfed before - that is the main purpose of having the extra class. The course does NOT certify you as any educator or counselor - if you wish to have a fuller training - you can go to our Mommy Latch Breastfeeding Educator/Counselor Certification page for more information! 
#2 Bonus - Business Startup Digital Products - We will be offering our some Business Digital Product Packages depending on your enrollment you choose - pay in full - Extreme Business Package (includes Doing Business the Doula Way PDF, and Digital Products that go with this), Deluxe Business Package (Payment Plan #1), and Basic Business Package (Payment Plan #2.) 
#3 Bonus - Awesome Doula Club Membership will be included - worth $49 - If you pay in full - one year membership, pay #1 payment plan (3 months of payments) - 6 months membership and Payment Plan #2 (6 months payments) is 3 months membership in Awesome Doula Club! 
#4 Rebozo Mexican Shawl - pay in full students can choose an longer rebozo - payment plan students will receive 78 inch rebozo - or can add in an upgrade fee if you want a longer one. 
Postpartum Doulas may also receive other goodies - please see new postpartum doula page to see our offerings for postpartum doulas. Our Postpartum doula course will also be $655 total now because of the new add-on of Double Certification for postpartum doula and Nutritional Doula. We recently updated the postpartum doula course to add on some business section that was previously missing - so it is now even better program! 
What if you want to just do a stand alone Nutritional Doula course? We are bringing back our Kitchen Doula Academy class - it has a new Thinkific location (more private) so we can sell this class through our Catholic Doula website! I will be adding in a page with more information soon - so stay tuned! 
If you need to apply for a scholarship - we are opening up our fall scholarship program as of today September 15th and that will remain open till October 15th for applications. We do have limited supply of scholarship funds and we are also planning a candle fundraising this fall - so if you are wanting to help with scholarships - let us know!
