Do you spend your free time scrolling Instagram watching birth videos, obsess over learning about how pregnancy and labor work, and get easily sucked into the wormhole of the birth world? Me too! Why not turn that passion into a career? Getting started can be overwhelming. I have run a successful doula business for almost 10 years and there weren't many resources available on how to run a doula business then. That's why I built The Doula College - so you don't have to do it alone. Let me and my team guide you step by step on how to do this - and how to do it right.
Hi! My name is Chelsea and I'm here to help you learn how to become a doula.
Professional.
Knowledgable.
Modern.

Our online training is a great options for aspiring doulas who need schedule flexibility and/or are not local to North Carolina and cannot take our in-person trainings. Our online trainings combine pre-recorded videos discussing the class topics, and a mandatory live Zoom meeting. When you purchase your online training, you will be sent onboarding information with access to the pre-recorded videos on the date of the training. You will have one week from the opening date to watch the videos before joining me for our live Zoom meeting. During this meeting, we will briefly touch on the class topics and will have a Q&A at the end.
