Description

Learn how to provide emotional and physical support to new and expectant parents during their most vulnerable moments when you take this Birth Doula course.

A doula is a special pregnancy companion who aims to help families have a safe and positive experience during the whole labour and postpartum months. Many parents find a doula's involvement to be crucial to their well-being, and you can be taught the disciplines needed to take on this unique role. As doulas provide advice and a continuous supportive role, without making medical decisions on behalf of their clients, they are much sought-after as advocates and mediators during pregnancy. You will therefore be taught all the educational requirements needed to identify and manage conditions associated with pregnancy. Along with antenatal examinations, you will also learn how to support the mental health of prospective parents, with special consideration given to empathy, comforting, and communication.

  • Defining the roles and responsibilities of a doula
