Hey guys I am new to these forums. I too want to train as a doula and child birth educator and am going to be training with CBI. I think they have alot more to offer and after comparing them to OB I think they are the one for me.
I did 2 yrs towards my Bach Mid in Nz and for various reasons was unable to complete my degree, but have always had a passion for this field and after 50+ births know that this is my calling.
Before coming to Oz I didn't really know much about the role of a doula but am so thankful that I discovered it and am looking forward to my studies which I hope to start in the next week or so.
I would be really keen to keep in touch with anyone else training as a support network etc if you are interested.
