This is the year I must recertify with DONA. I have been debating on if it is better to do it or not. I have tried to keep track of where my clients have found me. Mostly it is the VFDC in our area or by word of mouth.
Last year I only took 4 births. Is it worth it for me to recert?. I am still a Doula and follow what I have been taught and believe in the support that every birthing mother should have. I would do nothing different without a certification from DONA. I just do not know.
I guess I will have to see what parents think about hiring a Doula without a certification. I am still DONA trained and keep up on reading and things to enhance by practice. I guess I feel it crazy after 25+ births I would need to get 3 more births signed off. Have I not proven my worth already?
This is the question of the week. I would no be able to use this upcoming birth because I have not ordered my packet to re-certify so I would need 3 birth by November of this year and if things are like last year....well...I may not get them anyways..
I better makeup my mind and fast I suppose.
