  • Our Postpartum Doula Training is designed to empower postpartum doulas in supporting families when an infant has complex care needs and in helping parents find harmony in a new household. When families are delayed in or won’t be bringing home a baby, our postpartum doulas specialize in nurturing the family through their grief and adjustment process. This three-day in-person workshop covers key topics and support techniques to help postpartum doulas better serve their client families.
  • Join other providers as you earn 32 CME’s and develop your patient care skills in a supportive environment. Learn about the interpersonal neurobiology of the brain; what’s happening in the laboring brain; develop trauma informed interaction skills and communication strategies that cut through your implicit bias. Be the provider with the lowest cesarean rate and best outcomes in your practice - all the while offering culturally congruent care.
