How much pp work do you do?

I was just wondering how busy most of you ladies are? Do you work very, very regularly as a pp doula or just once in awhile. After doing this most recent pp job I would really, really like to do more work in the area!!!! It is so rewarding!!!

I work about 20 hours a week pretty much all the time unless I've got a few days lull between due dates.

So far I seem to keep clients coming and try to do at least 2 to 3 days for 3 to 4hr shifts and still have time for massage clients. My pp clients really have been helping me through some of my slower months lately. I hope to keep working with clients untill I am

that I need to slow down a bit.

Aside from clients who are facing challenges, I only do the obligitory one that I promise. I know that I would enjoy it more later, but currently, I don't like to spend any more time away from my children than necessary. When school starts, I'm sure it'll be a whole different ball game.

My first official pp client will be this June. I could have taken on a pp client yesterday in a neighbouring town (45 min drive) but I decided it would make for a busy month. I also have 2 birth clients due this month so I don't want to be too hectic.
On an aside...I have one example of a pp contract but does anyone have another example to share with me?

TIA,
Liz
