Please join me live as I virtually commence our YBH Graduate Ceremony live on our Doula Your Birth Helper facebook page (www.facebook.com/yourbirthhelper) and help me congratulate two amazing women!  Charlotte Doula Sarah Neri, YBHCE, AAHCC, YBHD and GA Doula Nikki Reeves, YBHCE, YBHD   These two young ladies formerly held their basic doula certificates  and now have successfully completed our YBH Advanced Skills Doula Apprenticeship Program.  Nancy Cook, BSN, YBHCE, YBHD and I, personally mentor each candidate.  In addition, we test them through little to no sleep, through sucessful VBAC coaching, through medical Inductions, through often strenous very long hours all through the day and night.  Both also managed being a super mom, caring for their other children after long labors and no sleep.  And, if that wasn't hard enough, they both continued to excel within the program being pregnant and personally assisting laboring couples bedside through physically challenging labor positions and with a vast variety of techniques, ALL WHILE NURSING!   Collectively, they have three drug free births between them, with Sarah's last being out of hospital in birth center and Nikki's last on Easter Sunday 2019.

Please link up Friday, April 10th 7pm and join us in this time of celebration.  It's not the graduation we anticipated, but we will do our best through the Covid_19 shelter in place.  I would ask if you had the pleasure to have Sarah or Nikki either help train you in a labor workshop, class, a doula during labor at home or hospital and/ or for a postpartum visit or support person, PLEASE SHARE either a LIVE COMMENT, share a  PHOTO comment, create your own video post to say CONGRATS or consider leaving a review for Sarah or Nikki on their fb or google pages as this would be a spectacular Thank you / Graduation Surprise! Both Sarah and Nikki have plans to head up their own YBH Teams in the future.  No doubt, both of these girls are valuable assets to any pregnant, birthing or postpartum MOM/ FAMILY!  Thank you in advance #BirthFamily!
