Course Reviews 
I have learned how to explain the work of a doula, which is important and sometimes hard to summarize. I’ve learned the stages of labor, tools, techniques, and things to look out for. I’ve also learned valuable insights to starting up my own business and some marketing techniques I didn’t think of! I feel prepared and like having this certification will back my experience and goals in this profession. From Andrea
After taking this workshop, I’ve really understood the role of a doula and how much worth the work they do is. It’s incredible to support someone during the most vulnerable time. As if you were family, and in the end, it creates a closer sensation of the world being united. I feel that I can apply my training and feel confident that I can help however the couple feels. I realize every experience will be different which will make them all special. I also feel blessed to have been given the knowledge to better help my fellow women in ways that all women should help each other; emotionally, mentally, physically, in rough times, in happy times, etc. This course was a delight. Thank you. Anel
From this Doula workshop I have learned ways to support a woman in birth. One of the most important tools that I have learned is that the Doula Interview is both for the Doula and the Client rather than just for the Client. I have also learned useful business techniques as it pertains to starting my Doula Business. I feel much more prepared for the task ahead. I feel more confident that I can be a good Doula. Lara
I have learned so much from this workshop from comfort measures to female anatomy to the birthing process. I have in my mind the type of Doula that I want to be. Caring, compassionate, informative and very hands on. I feel more confident in taking the training. My Mom worked in the OB/GYN and NICU units at a few hospitals when I was a child so I have always been around this type of stuff. I used to go with her to Prenatal and Breastfeeding classes that she would teach. On top of what I have learned from her by adding this course to my knowledge list, I feel very confident that I can accommodate many women’s wishes. I’m very excited! No suggestions. The course was wonderful! Melissa
I learned a lot of very valuable practical skills for supporting a birthing woman. I also learned a lot about the business of being a doula. I feel inspired to get out there and support new families! I really enjoyed this course. There are no criticisms from me. It was very convenient and full of great information! Mishka
To interact more with client.Allow client to make own decisions. Different exercises and massage that can help during Labour. Very excited! Ready to get started. All Doulas should have a refresher course. Myrtle
I have learned more about the risks of interventions during birth (I never used any, so haven’t experienced an epidural or pitocin, for example). From this workshop I have gotten a better sense of the practical considerations of preparing to go “a-doula-ing”, like planning my calendar, what to charge, how many clients I can support per month, etc. I also got good reminders about how to approach a client and her partner, to be more sensitive and take my time. I feel ready to get going! There aren’t any suggestions that come to my mind. You have done a fine job. Thanks, Anne
This workshop has inspired me and taught me priceless information and tools to use in my doula practice. I look forward to using the skills I’ve obtained to participate in more healthy pregnancies and births. Meagan
