Apprentice Doula Program
Birth Help offers an apprentice training program for doulas desiring experiential training while working with experienced, certified doulas. DONA does not require doulas to participate in an apprentice program to fulfill requirements for birth doula certification.
The apprentice program allows doulas to learn while attending client consultations, prenatal client appointments, births, and postpartum visits. Apprentice doulas also complete reading assignments, childbirth class observations, birth summaries, and participate in other Birth Help functions.
Fees vary as the apprentice program is personalized to each doula's needs and skill level.
