Welcome to The Traditional Doula School

At The Traditional Doula School, our mission is to bridge the gap between modern midwifery and freebirth. We offer a balanced approach to doula education. Grounded in evidence-based care for homebirth, while deeply rooted in traditional wisdom. This isn’t just about learning the basics. Our training includes advanced tools and knowledge used by midwives, herbalists, and functional medicine practitioners so you’re fully prepared to support physiological birth in a holistic way.

I created this school because I saw a gap. I could never find doulas who could offer truly informed, evidence-based education while also holding sacred space during birth. The current system often pushes doulas to extremes: either deeply medicalized, or entirely unregulated. But I believe we can have it all.

At The Traditional Doula School, you’ll learn how to bridge both worlds offering skilled, grounded support without compromising your values. If you believe that birth works best at home and that women are designed for physiological birth, you’re in the right place. I train doulas to be knowledgeable, capable, and deeply aligned with the wisdom of natural birth.
