"Over the years I have done various different courses for CPD as a hypnotherapist and birth professional and this is one of the best I have attended. Kicki’s course really surpassed my expectations (I was really only after the practical information of setting up) and this is because of what Kicki brought of herself to the course. She has such a lovely warm and generous spirit in sharing all that she knows about supporting women that I shall always try and remember this in my therapeutic practice from now on." Alexandra Heath
What does each day of the course include?
I’ve designed The BirthBliss Doula Academy Foundation Course to walk you through every part of the process – what you need to know being a doula, how to support your clients, and step-by-step instructions for how to setup your doula business and get clients!
The building blocks of our doula course are trauma informed care. As doulas, we must understand that trauma doesn't just impact people's health but also belief systems and behaviours. We want to have in the forefront of our minds that everyone we come in contact with, are the way they are for a reason.
Our role is to help facilitate and enable our clients to feel well supported by developing a trusting relationship, offering evidence based information and non-judgemental support so that they can make informed choices for themselves.

There may be other types of businesses and doula training where you kinda, sorta get by without the support of a group.
But a doula business… well… they’re just not one of them.
While the core curriculum DOES take you by the hand and lead you every step of the way, there’s something undeniable special about engaging with others who have chosen the same path.

The course runs from Monday to Thursday, starting at 9am and finishing at 5pm, apart from the last day when we finish at 4.15pm. There is some work to be done, before as well as after the course. An Attendance Certificate will be issued on completion of the post-course module and after attending the course, you can enrol on our Accreditation Programme. However, you can start working as a doula straight away.
If you have any questions, please have a look at the FAQ section or make an appointment to speak to Kicki about the course. She would love to hear from you!
"The BirthBliss Doula course with Kicki Hansard is one of the best training courses I’ve been on. Kicki herself is warm and friendly and very knowledgeable, and her passion for supporting women shines through. The course content is varied, and the setting was so informal and relaxed that I felt comfortable to ask anything that popped into my head! By the end of the course I was inspired and raring to go."
