Our doula students and graduates come from different experiences. Many of our students have never given birth, many have had vaginal births, many have had surgical births or and a variety of related birth experiences. Having given birth or given birth vaginally is definitely not a prerequisite to becoming a doula or childbirth educator, nor does it make one a better perinatal support person.
Through our training workshops, our required readings, your educational unit courses, and our ongoing support you will become a confident and competent support person regardless of your prior experiences.
