Comprehensive
Affordable
Convenient
I know that you want to be more than just a doula; you want to be a successful doula. And you want to do it now!
To become a successful doula, you need training and mentoring in the art and skills of doula-ing.
The problem is, there are so many programs to choose from, and they are expensive. What if you pick the wrong one? Or spend $1,000 only to find out being a doula isn’t for you?
You end up frozen in the endless loop of scrolling and indecision, while your dream gets pushed off another day, month, or year. (How many years have you been wanting this???)
I believe anyone who wants to be a doula should be able to start training today.

Your doula training should be accessible, comprehensive, and affordable. And you should know it’s trustworthy.
Meet Your Doula Trainer
Hi! I'm Carrie Kenner, retired birth doula (350+ births), expert birth doula trainer (over 2,500 birth doulas), and author of So You Want to Be a Doula (October 2024) and Becoming a Birth Doula (Spring 2025).
I was one of the pioneers in online education for birth professionals, transitioning from in-person-only trainings, to hybrid models, and finally to online, on-demand courses.
Now, I offer a collection of introductory and advanced online trainings that prepare you for a life as a doula, add new skills to your repertoire, and elevate your existing practice. These courses are online versions of the same in-person courses I offered for over a decade.
I also write books that offer a low-cost, low-risk way to enter the doula field.
Now affordable and convenient for anyone around the world.

Carrie Kenner was, and is, the best instructor I have ever had the pleasure to meet. Her explanations are clear, her demeanor is very approachable and light, and she works hard to get the content across in different ways so that it is accessible to all.
Carrie's teaching abilities allowed the perspectives of myself and other students to be heard, clarified, and stretched. I always left class feeling inspired and with an open mind, a mind with space to explore, digest, and wonder more.
Carrie as a doula educator is in her element. She is a balance between heart, head, and instinct, exuding calm confidence with quick intellect, as well as current knowledge of all the intricacies of being a doula.
Carrie is an an amazing educational resource, so knowledgeable while also a wonderfully entertaining and engaging teacher. I very much enjoyed her teaching style...Carrie is also a great doula role model. Just being around her helps a new doula realize how all the training translates into a craft and how a good doula balances intuition, compassion, and professionalism.
Carrie is rich in knowledge and wise in spirit. I would highly recommend her trainings to anyone wanting to learn not only about birth, but also how navigate the ins and outs of the accompaniment role of a doula.
