Go to the Professional Cuddling board and read the sticky topics, starting at the beginning of each thread. You'll then need to apply.
Be aware that there is more to it than meets the eye.
Where do I find the professional cuddling board?
Depending on your browser /pc/phone it could also be here (see picture) Or here is a link: https://www.cuddlecomfort.com/forum/categories/professional-cuddling
How do you become a pro paid cuddler
@BethyBoopy read the above comments
How do I go about becoming a pro?
@Emeraldmommi963 reading the other comments in this thread you commented on is a good place to start.
Hello, Just reading up about becoming a pro on CC. No concrete plans just yet. Doing further research. All and any advice especially from those who have commitments and raise children.
When to share photos of oneself. When to discuss cuddling positions. How to stay safe and introduce yourself professionally, kindly and not seem just driven to make an appointment?
Any further reading or workshops to recommend?
(I'm hoping to book platonic cuddling workshops and attend any networking events of any known in London? As I believe this is the nearest location)
As it stands I like getting to know the other person on a genuine care level without discussing personal matters contentious subjects etc.
I absolutely love to share and give cuddles and have had some meet ups and chosen only to meet with those on the same wavelength and page as myself. Safety, security and comfort first!
I prefer public spaces open spaces. In the begining do professionals do this first off and then consider being a guest?
I believe I would be a good cuddle professional as I 1000 love the oxytocin boost, what it does for ones wellbeing and mental health and just wish more people knew about it and started accepting that cuddling is a real healer and can be a profession. I have read extensively regarding the health benefits from cuddling and it is something I would like to share and become professional at. I'd like to know more about professionalism of it. I have some awareness that people tend to say professionals are not as able, or willing to communicate/message to get to know their client and I wholeheartedly understand this as professionals this is their livelihood and not about making friendships.
Do any professionals do this as part time? Alongside commitments/other work? How/when do you make your client aware of these obviously not sharing personal information but in fairness of being available, travel constraints etc? How long do you generally converse with them through messaging before initial meet up? Is it very much up to you and what is the safest method before exchanging context information? Also albeit you want to prioritise time to prospective clients, do you go or trust your gut instincts? Are there signs to look out for/red flags?
Those with children young or older how do you manage time?
If clients are far from you e.g. 1hr plus how do you discuss this and find a middle ground?
If you have been ask to meet at a hotel how did you go about this?
What is the vetting process like? Considerations to skin problems/enquiring medical conditions, especially as through cuddling it is physically intimate.
I ask for all and any suggestions, advice constructive criticism. Etc
Last important question is, if becoming a professional does not work out can you revert to being an enthusiast and remain on Cuddle Comfort with your same profile, reviews etc?
Thank you so much in advance!
Sincerely
Welcome to CC! 🤗 I really recommend doing lots of reading before making a decision about applying to be a Pro Cuddler, there’s definitely a learning curve. It’s especially important to learn how to screen potential cuddlers for safety whether as a Pro (who charges) or Enthusiast (doesn’t charge) and that there is an application process required before becoming a Pro, At the top of each Forum discussion (General, Pro Cuddler, Pros Only, etc) there are pinned topics (blue tags) that have really valuable info, other general terminology and rules. I am always happy to answer questions if you DM me or I will refer to a Mod.
Thank you Carrie_Anne
There is already a thread on becoming a pro provider. Merging this with that.
