Can I use Vev’s appointment scheduler for doulas everywhere?
For sure! To quote Jennifer Lopez: “Brazil, Morocco, London to Ibiza. Straight to LA, New York, Vegas to Africa”. Our way of saying; no matter where your labour care session business is on the planet, you can always count on Vev. Right now, we support over 10 languages (with more to come) and over 100 currencies.
What information is needed to schedule an appointment?
That depends slightly. When an doula plans an appointment from their dashboard, only the client's name is needed. Nothing more.
When a client books an appointment with your labour care session business from your online page, they must fill in their name and email address. Both phone number and address are optional fields.
What happens once a labour care session is scheduled?
No matter whether you or one of your clients scheduled the appointment, the chosen time slot is blocked from that moment onwards. It will also appear in your labour care session business calendar.
At the same time, an email will be sent to both you and the client about the upcoming appointment. In addition, another reminder mail will go out just before the labour care session.
Can an appointment be rescheduled or canceled once it has been made?
Yes, both you and the client can do both of these things. However, you as the doula remains in control, deciding exactly until when clients can reschedule or cancel.
No labour care session business wants clients canceling just 5 minutes before their appointment.
What do I need to get started with my labour care session business?
You only need an email address, a password, and a name for your labour care session business. Nothing is forever, you can change everything later. Do make sure to comply with local regulations for doulas. Check whether you need a license or register with a Chamber of Commerce before getting your first appointments.
