Doula Training Dates
The Perinatal Academy Doula programme is unique.
It’s a comprehensive mix of on going live training, personal study and development. It means you can access the course from wherever you are, no travel or hotel costs. Our course is live, so you can interact with your Doula guides and fellow budding Doulas in real time, to get inspired and have all your questions answered. If you want to get hands on there is an optional in person Doula day held in London at the end of the course.
Our content is deep and modern, we combine traditional nurturing practises alongside the realities of birthing in our modern maternity system.
Our training team is EXCEPTIONAL. We are a team of experienced, practising birth workers that includes FEDANT-accredited Antenatal Educators, Doulas, Hypnobirthing Instructors, Midwives, IBCLC Lactation Consultants, and more, plus leading voices for Birthrights and the LGBTQ+ community, as well as Perinatal Mental Health and Trauma specialists.
This is the expert network you have access to, guiding you on your Doula journey!
Our Doula program is friendly, warm and welcoming, with ample support and motivation. We are a community so you never feel like you are going it alone, which is priceless.
You will be inspired and supported with practical business set up and plans. There is ongoing learning and guidance where you can pick exactly what YOU need for your new venture, depending on where your strengths lie and where you might need extra support.
We are with you constantly whilst you do the work. This is so important!
