Cancellation Policy:
The intent of this policy is to ensure that Graceful Beginnings Birth Services is able to maximize attendance in classes by providing parameters to minimize cancellations and accommodate the administrative burdens associated with processing cancellations.
If you have registered for a Graceful Beginnings Birth Services Birth Doula Workshop, payment must be received by date of booking. Should you need to cancel for any reason, your eligibility for a refund and the administrative fee applied will depend on the circumstances of your cancellation.
- Full cancellation with a full refund is available within 24 hours of booking.
- If a registrant provides more than 30 days or more before a workshop their full balance will be returned.
- If a registrant provides less than 30 days notice before a workshop their full balance will be paid minus a $50 administrative fee.
- If a registrant provides less than 1 weeks notice their full balance will be paid minus $100 administrative fee.
- Registrants may apply the full fee without penalty towards a future workshop held by Graceful Beginnings Birth Services, within 2 years of start date of initial workshop.
- If the registrant must cancel a second time, an additional administrative fee will be charged depending on the amount of notice given (see above) and the registrant will receive their remaining balance.
- If an attendee is able to transfer their registration fee to another person who is eligible to attend the training, all administrative fees will be waived.
- If a registrant fails to show for the scheduled class they were registered for, NO refund will be offered. If registrant fails to show due to extreme circumstances (such as that of illness, family death, accidents, etc.), reimbursement will be at the sole discretion of the Graceful Beginnings Birth Services.
- If a class does not run to do an insufficient number of participants, the registrant will receive a full refund or request that their payments be applied toward a future training session.
