About the Program
The development of the Kindred Mentorship Program was fueled by my passion to support doulas on their paths to becoming skilled, knowledgable, and confident birth pros. When I first started as a doula I felt very alone on my journey, but I want you to know
YOU DON'T HAVE TO DO THIS ALONE.
Our team of mentors want every doula who works with us to have a sustainable practice that allows them to love what they do and do it well for a long time. We equip doulas with practical tools and actionable steps they can take to offer effective, informed, and compassionate care to parents in their communities.
