2020: What Is Doman International Doing?
2020 has surely been a crazy year for all of us. For the staff at Doman International, we’ve been as busy as ever doing online courses for new families and remote appointments with our veteran families! Many parents have reached out to Doman International recently, as life slowly returns to normality, asking what our plans are for courses and services for the rest of this year.
In making our plans, we must take into account the safety of our children, families, and staff. We are implementing protocols that are stricter than the Center for Disease Control guidelines, at all of our centers in Philadelphia, Italy, and other live evaluation sites so we can reduce our families risk to COVID-19 exposure.
So what are we up to, you ask? Here are our plans moving forward for appointments and courses:
Appointments
Live Appointments in Philadelphia
Doman International is providing LIVE appointments at our Philadelphia center for the rest of the year. If you are interested in bringing your child for an appointment in 2020, I highly recommend you contact us as soon as possible as the appointments are filling up quickly. Why are the appointments getting taken quickly? We are limiting our number of families we are seeing to 1-2 families a week to limit exposure of our children to other people unnecessarily. This means we cannot see nearly as many families per week as we usually do. Our appointments in September, October, and November are filling up quickly so if you want to schedule something in the next 4-6 months, please contact your staff coach as soon as possible.

Remote Appointments
Our remote appointments are very popular. This week alone, we have 12 families we are programming remotely! We are so happy that since the start of the pandemic, we have had a 100% satisfaction rate from our parents doing remote appointments. These remote visits allow us to evaluate a child, design a program, and teach it to the parents all remotely via zoom. Our families are delighted with the flexibility of this option, meaning they don’t have to leave their home and incur all the additional costs associated with travel, and can instead schedule at their convenience. In the absence of a live appointment, this is the next best option. If you would like a remote appointment, please contact your staff coach as soon as possible.
Live Appointments in other locations
Moscow, Russia: Doman International has two Russian Doman Method® coaches, and we currently plan to do live appointments in Moscow the weeks of October 19 and 26! We are excited to be able to support and see our Russian families again. Contact us if you are interested in coming for a live appointment in Moscow.
