Description
Join us for a deeply immersive four-day in-person doula training at the beautiful Missenden Abbey from 9th-12th June 2025, running daily from 09:30 – 14:30.

Unlike many doula trainings that rely solely on online learning or brief workshops, this program offers a truly holistic approach. You’ll be guided through the art of birth support in a way that is both practical and deeply intuitive, blending knowledge with real-world application. Through interactive teaching, live demonstrations, and group discussions, you’ll develop the confidence to advocate for birthing women, hold space in a meaningful way, and trust your instincts as a birth companion. This isn’t just about absorbing information—it’s about stepping into the role, practicing skills in real time, and leaving with the confidence to support birth in any setting.
From the moment you arrive, you’ll be immersed in learning. You’ll have access to the full pre-recorded online course, allowing you to start absorbing key concepts at your own pace before we come together for four days of live, guided training. In this setting, you’ll refine your skills, ask questions in real time, and connect with fellow students who share your passion. You’ll be supported every step of the way, not just during these four days, but long after—through ongoing mentorship, a private support group, and continued education to keep you growing in your journey.
Missenden Abbey provides the perfect setting for this deep, transformative work. While the training is the focus, the calm, expansive surroundings add to the experience, allowing you to fully step away from the outside world and immerse yourself in learning. The connection you build here—with the knowledge, the practice, and the people—will stay with you long after the training ends.
Spaces for this in-person experience are strictly limited to ensure an intimate and high-quality learning environment. If you’re ready to go beyond the standard doula training and truly embody the role of a birth companion, this is your invitation. Secure your place now and prepare for a life-changing journey.
