I’ve never gotten to know a client and her partner faster or easier during a prenatal...she said it was the perfect amount of information and she was already feeling so prepared for labor. And it was SO fun! While the point of YBE is to prepare our clients for their birth I really see now that this is equally as beneficial to me as their doula. Knowing their personalities, seeing them open up and interact with each other and everything I learned about them during the Envisioning Your Birth section is going to help me be that much better of a doula for them.
