A Comprehensive VBAC and Cesarean Doula Training Program to Confidently Support Every Birth Outcome
A 9-module certification program giving doulas and birth professionals the evidence-based tools, mindset, and advocacy skills to support clients through VBAC, planned cesarean, and everything in between.
You want to support VBAC & cesarean clients with confidence
Whether you’ve been a doula for years or are just getting started, VBAC and cesarean support can feel, well, complicated. You want to show up confidently, advocate effectively, and provide trauma-informed care in every birth setting but most trainings only scratch the surface (or don’t cover it at all).
You’re ready for a deeper level of understanding, and a clear, compassionate framework that covers:
The medical realities of VBAC and cesareans
How to navigate provider bias, hospital systems, and unexpected outcomes
What to say when things become difficult
How to guide mental and physical preparation that truly supports your clients
Who Is This Program For?
VBAC & Cesarean for Birth Professionals is for doulas, childbirth educators, and other birthworkers who are ready to:
✔ Expand their knowledge and elevate their confidence supporting every type of birth
✔ Learn how to support VBAC and cesarean clients without fear, bias, or confusion
✔ Feel prepared in hospital, birth center, home birth, and transfer scenarios
✔ Help clients process trauma, release fear, and make empowered decisions
✔ Get certified as a VBAC & Cesarean Birth Professional (VCBP)
You DON’T need to be an experienced doula to take this training (you can be brand new or still in the process of your base training). You just need a heart for supporting families through birth in all its forms.
