About The Program
Holistic Doula School is a 12-week live training program designed to prepare you to confidently support families through pregnancy, birth, and postpartum — while also launching a legitimate, sustainable doula business.
This is not a weekend crash course.
This is not a theory-heavy certification with zero practical application.
And this is not a fluffy online class you forget about in a month.
This is comprehensive, physiologic, skills-based doula training — integrated with real-world business setup so you leave ready to serve moms.
Who This Is For
-
The Aspiring Doula
You feel pulled toward birthwork and want a comprehensive, skills-based foundation. Not a rushed weekend training — but real education in physiologic birth, postpartum recovery, informed decision-making, and practical support that prepares you to walk into a birth space steady and capable.
-
The Holistic-Minded Birthworker
You value physiologic birth, nourishment, nervous system support, and ancestral postpartum care. You want training rooted in both evidence and lived experience — without rigid ideology or black-and-white thinking.
-
The Future Business Owner
You don’t just want a certificate. You want contracts drafted, packages structured, pricing decided, and a launch plan built. You want to leave this program ready to book clients and operate professionally.
-
The Mother Creating a Sustainable Calling
You feel called to birthwork, but your family still comes first. You’re looking for clear boundaries, realistic on-call structure, and a model that fits your actual life — so you can serve other families without neglecting your own.
What Makes This Program Different
Most doula programs compress everything into a single weekend or overwhelm you with theory and leave you to figure out the rest on your own.
Holistic Doula School gives equal weight to physiologic birth and postpartum integration. You’ll learn how to support informed decision-making without becoming rigid or reactive. You’ll understand nuance — how to think in real time, how to navigate interventions without panic, and how to hold space when plans change.
This program also integrates business foundations from the beginning. You will not finish this training wondering how to price your services or write a contract.
You will leave prepared to practice independently.
Continued mentorship beyond the training is optional and separate.
“Birth is a rite of passage of women. Their journey should be honored, their rights should be fiercely protected, and their stories should be shared.”
- Marcie Macari
