Postnatal Doula - Course Duration

Many of our students are juggling their lives with family and jobs - this is why we ensure the course is as flexible as it can be, helping you to achieve your dream of becoming a postnatal doula while providing the best training possible!

Flexibility PLUS!

The beauty of certifying as a Postnatal Doula with Childbirth International is that you have the flexibility to fit it in with your lifestyle. You can complete the course in as little as 2-3 months, or take as long as 3 years. If your family commitments change, you can take a break from studying for a while. If you have holidays coming up and some extra free time, you can pick up a faster pace.

As an estimate, if you study for 10 hours each week, the course will take you 4-6 months to complete and certify. This would include the time it takes for you to complete the study workbooks, and assumes that you support two women in the postnatal period. This is similar to other programs once you take into account attending their workshops, supporting women postnatal and completing their certification requirements. However, as a Childbirth International certified Postnatal Doula you will have completed the most comprehensive training that is available anywhere in the world! Flexibility Plus!

"My trainer was very helpful. She gave me advice on finding a backup and tips on starting my business. I could always rely on a quick response from her whenever I needed assistance." - Angi, California
