Labour Doula I ONLINE I January 29-30

Join our experienced Doula Canada instructors for two days of virtual learning!

Client-centred and trauma-informed this workshop will go over the materials covered in our typical two-day “in-person” workshop and creates the opportunity for DTC members to sit and hold space with our experienced team of instructors.

The workshop will be held via Zoom from 10:30am to 5:30pm EST.  Login details will be sent one week prior to the Virtual Workshop date.
All sessions are closed-captioned.
Sessions are recorded for DTC internal purposes only.

Regular certification rates apply and members can request to join a physical in-person workshop when we are next in their area (no additional cost applies).  Members may also choose to take part in the 1 day Advanced Comfort Measures as an alternative to their in-class workshop attendance (as required by some doula associations).

*Those who register for the Triple Stream (Labour Doula, Postpartum Doula, and Educator OR Fertility Doula) will take part in 3 separate virtual trainings. *Please specify whether you wish to take Educator OR Fertility in the comments section of your registration.

You will show up on time and be fully present for each live session that you attend, acting in a professional manner.  You will reach out to our faculty or any staff if any unexpected issues arise.  You agree to take full responsibility for addressing your needs in the area of accessible learning, self-care, and compassionate treatment of peers and DTC staff.  The faculty and staff reserve the right to remove trainees at any time if the trainee creates an unsafe or unprofessional environment for you or other trainees, or for any reason that does not represent the policies of DTC.
