 Virtual Doula Trainings

How does a virtual doula training compare to in-person?

It doesn't, although you will get the same information and materials you will also make connections during a virtual training. You will have time for small group work in breakout rooms and other interactive participation opportunities. Also, you won't have to worry about social distancing, sanitizing, and wearing face masks!

What are the topics?

These are the same topics as the in-person trainings:
  • Breastfeeding for birth doulas​
  • DONA International certification  
  • Importance of labor support
  • Prenatal contact with your clients
  • Hormones and emotional support
  • Comfort measures 
  • Special circumstances
  • Communication
  • The 3rd and 4th stages of labor
  • The newborn
  • The doula business
  • Virtual doula

What are the hours?

Virtual doula trainings take longer than in-person - 5 days. The first day begins on Friday of the first weekend, and the second weekend is Saturday and Sunday. There are also options for evening sessions with guests and videos. The hours each day are from 10:00 am - 1:00 pm, and 2:00 pm - 5:00 pm.  

What are the fees?

Due to the extended length of the doula training the registration fees are $450. Complete the registration form on the "Register" page, and submit the fees with Venmo @Rae-Davies or Zelle 904-813-5822, or contact me rae@thebirthcompany.com. Complete your registration at least one week before we begin so that I can mail your 200+ page notebook to arrive in time for the training. If you cannot attend refunds are available.
