Next, we conduct our “Year One” educational programming led by industry experts to equip all employees with the knowledge needed to ensure changes and transitions run smoothly for everyone involved. The final piece is the individual Executive Doula service which prepares them for and supports them through the experience of childbirth, and provides ongoing professional resources and support services both in person and virtually up to one year postpartum.
