Please note: Birth for Humankind is currently not taking any new doula training enrolments.
A doula is a highly skilled birth companion who provides practical and emotional support during pregnancy, birth and the postnatal period.
Research shows that continuous care throughout pregnancy from a known, trusted support person – such as a doula – contributes to improved birth and early parenting outcomes and experiences.
Enrolments for all Birth for Humankind Doula Training courses are currently closed.
“I really liked that I would have the opportunity after my online study to work as a volunteer with vulnerable clients, most of whom don’t have a birth support person.”
