Congratulations on your interest in becoming a Birth Doula! You will soon experience the amazing joy of the special impact you will have working with families in your area. Doula School has been training doulas for over a decade! We offer a DONA approved birth doula training workshop.
Anyone who has a willingness to help families through birth can become a birth doula or a childbirth educator. Though it’s helpful, it’s not necessary to have a background in health or medicine. Keep in mind that a doula is a non-medical professional.
Our Doula School Birth Doula Training program is 24+ hours of in class (virtual) learning. Our DONA International approved training is the first step on your journey to supporting families as a certified Birth Doula. This interactive and live training will equip you with tools to empower and support families throughout their pregnancies and labour which we believe is very needed in this world. Covering a variety of topics, from different interventions, emotional support, active listening, and a whole lot more – we feel that it’s the most comprehensive doula training available.
