About the event
From Crisis to Comfort:
How Doulas Can Make a Difference in the NICU Experience
Deepen your understanding of the NICU experience and learn how doulas are uniquely positioned to improve the NICU experience for babies and their families.
YOU can be a NICU Doula with a certification from MaternityWise - which will open the doors for you to support families in this very special and challenging experience! More info will be shared so you can get trained and certified!
Objectives of this FREE Event:
1.) Learn how NICU families are “set up” for perinatal mental health disorders: discuss how current prenatal culture and the NICU environment disrupt infant bonding and the role of parental autonomy which in turn increases the risk of perinatal mood and anxiety disorders for NICU families.
