What about my doula? Can they join me?

Yes! We offer limited seats each month for doulas to audit the entire class series for a separate fee. 1 additional support person is welcome to attend our dress rehearsal session for free, however. Please email hello@sweetbeedoula.com or call 410-929-0411 for more information.

Are there options for financial flexibility?

In acknowledgment of wage gaps that disproportionately impact women and folks of color, we offer a payment plan option. Please reach out to us at hello@sweetbeedoula.com or call us at 410-929-0411 to inquire. We never want finances to prevent someone from accessing education and empowerment.

I registered but can no longer make the sessions. Can I get a refund?

We keep class sizes small to honor the intimate nature of our conversations. Registration reserves your spot in our class and is non-refundable. With advanced notice and approval, registration can be transferred to a later class. This is permitted at the discretion of the Sweet Bee Services Administrative Team. Please reach out by email at hello@sweetbeedoula.com or by phone at 410-929-0411 for more information.

I'm a birth professional and want to take a class. What are my options?

You’re welcome to audit class with your client or separately.
