[Updated January 2022]
Covid-19 has brought many challenges for doulas and expectant mothers alike. However, one saving grace of this pandemic, is the widespread adoption of e-learning for online trainings and certification programs. As such, aspiring doulas now often have access to hundreds of training programs taking place across the world versus a small handful that were previously accessible to them in their geography.
While training programs can vary in duration, quality and topics covered, a good program should typically cover the following topics or modules:
- Normal birth
- Gynecology
- Breast and nipple care
- Physical care of the birthing woman
- Birthing positions
- Perineal massage
- Rebozo Soothing Techniques
- Birthing tubs
- Doula skills
- Doula ethics
- Dealing with emotions
- Pain management
- Support in labour
- Birth plans
- Postnatal period
- Preparation for a new baby
- Infant care
- Breastfeeding issues
- Piggybacking
- Postpartum blues
- Postnatal depression
- Postnatal health
- Physiotherapy
- Body mechanics
- Maternal health
- Antenatal classes
- Pregnancy
- Labour
- Birth
- Postnatal period
- Infant care
- Feeding
- Parenting
- Bonding
- Breastfeeding
- Infant care
