“I absolutely love this course and would highly recommend it to anyone who is interested in becoming a doula. I feel like my knowledge has expanded so much since I started. I have met some amazing people and now feel confident to step into the birth space and support families.” Chloe - OBC graduate

“The Physiology module is incredibly informative; full of hands-on experience and medical knowledge in equal measures. The content & detail in each section is so thorough, I've taken so many notes that I think I might need a new notebook for the next module!” Tulsi - OBC graduate.

“I trained with The Original Birth Connection because I wanted to become a competent and confident doula and really make a positive difference to people's birth experiences and outcomes. With the OBC you get unconditional support, teachings from incredible birth keepers and time to explore who you are as a doula.

I am very proud to be part of Alex's training - so grateful for the support, learning and connections. If you feel the calling to train with the OBC and become a doula, just do it! You honestly won't regret it.” Autumn - OBC graduate
