Congratulations to Amy Gilliland who has been chosen as a general session

speaker at the DONA International Conference in Atlanta, GA this August!!

 

 

Welcome to the next step on your journey as a doula! We offer high quality DONA approved doula trainings in the Upper Midwest area, and have been lauded by DONA International for our dedication, leadership in the doula profession and innovative teaching methods! 

Our doula workshop is one of the first steps toward completing doula certification with DONA. Our home base is southern Wisconsin but we travel to provide workshops for hospitals, or

locally organized groups.

There are many paths to becoming an effective doula. This basic doula workshop is designed to help different kinds of women with different career and personal goals to learn more effective care of the pregnant, laboring and postpartum woman. Some have borne children, some have not. A compassionate heart is the most essential quality. We have successfully taught labor support skills to massage therapists, veterinarians, mothers, midwives, students, bookkeepers, farmers, childbirth educators, and many other women. Labor and delivery nurses and nursing students have taken our course to gain a deeper understanding of birth and new knowledge of effective comfort measures and positioning techniques.  We pride ourselves on influencing doulas and nurses to work together positively in our state.
