This comprehensive six-day workshop begins with our two-day Childbirth Education for the Birth Professional class followed by four days of doula training. Attendance at this workshop fulfills two of your requirements for Birth Doula certification with DONA International-- the CBE + Doula training requirements. For full certification information, please visit dona.org. In addition to learning the Art of Childbirth Assisting, this unique training workshop provides an exploration of historical and conventional paradigms around childbirth. You'll learn the special role of Birth Doulas and how we can help women and families return to the ancient wisdom of birthing and parenting.
"Doula care is presented as a return to the community-based, woman-centered care that existed prior to the shift from home to hospital births. As such, the training demonstrates how woman-centered support can reclaim a place within medicalized childbirth in Western cultures. Doulas learn about the birth process, medical issues that can arise, ways to support laboring women physically and emotionally, and how to advocate with and for a patient in a hospital environment." ~ Dr. Christine Morton, author of Birth Ambassadors.
