Ana Hill is the Colorado Labor Doula trainer. http://www.rockymountaindoula.com. I only host doula trainings outside of CO. This is a childbirth educator training.
Hello. I am interested in becoming a labor doula. I gave birth to my son, Jack, at the mountain midwifery center in April 2009 and loved the experience. I have been a pilates instructor for 7 years and a dancer all my life. Is the training in May for labor doula certification? Is it held at metro college in Denver? I work part time so looking to see How I will need to arrange my schedule. What do I need to prep for it? I train a lot of women before, during and after pregnancy and I’m looking to offer these women more! Thank you for your time.
