when is the right time to start a doula course?

[boomba]

I am really wanting to do a doula course as its something I am really passionate about (thanks BB )
there is one starting in August in Brisbane with the Australian Doula college...dont know if I can still get in ......but I am serioulsy contenplating doing it.
Has anyone done a course through them? Or how long does a course usually run for...its only saturday arvos for a few hours?
Also Ds will only be 9 months...I dont want to take on too much and have the kids suffer?

Also am kinda scared I will do the course then be too nervous to actual go and start being a doula? Eeek way too much going through my head...sorry its a bit of all over the place lol
