Save your spot in our fall doula workshops!
We will be offering two DONA International Birth Doula Workshops this fall (in September and November) and one DONA Postpartum Doula Workshop in October (this one is already half full!). Freshly updated workshops provide hands-on skills training and preparation for professional doula work. Doulas are compassionate, informed, resourceful, intuitive, calm when others are not, and more!
