Birthing Advocacy Doula Trainings (BADT)
I will be sharing a masterclass as a part of their Live Full spectrum doula training program. This is an incredible program!
“Our 12 week online Full Spectrum Doula Training provides doula education for all stages of a birthing person’s life. You’ll learn about topics and issues facing our communities and the birth world, such as the Black perinatal health crisis, food insecurity, and queer and trans birth and family building. This training is available for new doulas as well as experienced doulas.”
Full Spectrum Childbirth Education
Offering culturally-humble, trauma-informed, and comprehensive childbirth education
Why?
Pregnancy can be overwhelming! Many people report feeing unclear about the options available to them in pregnancy and postpartum, and when they look for answers they end up getting unhelpful, unsolicited, and/or incorrect advice and information.
These courses are taught through an advocacy lens, and is appropriate for anyone who is interested in exploring not only the options available to them as a pregnant person, but also the context surrounding the decisions they make about their care.
Classes are open to all birthing persons, including partnered or un-partnered, 2SLGBTQI+, and include the addition of a support person to attend with you.
