Ontario Perinatal

I'm definitely leaning toward doing the sibling course with them. Has anyone here done it and are you happy with the course?

It's very reasonably priced, just want to make sure it was worth the money.

Thanks!
Suzanne

I have had nothing but great things to say about OPS!

It is a reasonable price .... one thing to consider is Kathy is running the show all by herself along with a busy schedule with her family, so patience with her is a must. I love her to death and would do anything to keep OPS strong and grow. PLease feel free to email me if you ever have any questions.

I love OPS! I have done a lot of my training through them. I haven't done the Sibling Prep course, but I have done quite a few of their other courses. I actually made the switch from CAPPA to OPS because I loved the "small school" feeling and the incredible support I felt from everyone.

I'm happy to answer any questions that you might have!

OPS have their course advertised on Ebay at present.


Item number: 260259805511

I signed for 3 of OPS's online courses previously. I'm still in the process of completing them and OPS are so supportive as are your online peers on the course.
