About The Doula Course
Become a Doula the Wise Woman Way.
A Different kind of Doula Training.
Doula trainings often skim over pregnancy - ours goes deeper.
This course prepares you to walk alongside clients from the very beginning, holding space through each trimester.
Transform the way you see yourself, your clients, and your work as a doula.
A Peek Inside the Doula Course
Your Printed Doula Journal
Having a dedicated journal and workbook as part of your doula training is not only a space for you to reflect as your grow but a resource to return to as you build your knowledge.
More Than A Doula Course - It’s a Sisterhood
Our WhatsApp group is where everything comes alive. We get to know each other through the live calls, the messy reality of life with little ones and families and then create a true sisterhood in our closed group.
We are a circle of women walking the same path, learning from each other, holding space for one another, and rediscovering who we are and who we want to become.
