Dolphin Doula Certification

Welcome,

DYDC is very pleased to be able to offer our unique Dolphin Doula Method as formal training for those seeking to begin a fascinating and rewarding career as childbirth and labor support professionals or to deepen their understanding and skills as doulas. The Information, experience and wisdom shared in this certification program has been developed and refined over 9 years and more than 500 births; with amazing and powerful results.

Traditionally, doulas are people who provide informational, emotional, and physical support to women before, during and after childbirth. A doula stays by the woman’s side throughout the birthing experience. A Dolphin Doula is someone who is proficient in hypnosis for childbirth techniques that help to facilitate a positive birthing experience for pregnant women. Dolphin Doulas combine hypnosis specifically for childbirth, childbirth preparation and doula support.

The Dolphin Doula Method Certification Course includes training in hypnosis preparation for pregnant women or couples prior to the birth, the use of hypnosis during birth, as well as full labor support. Labor support entails emotional support, creating a safe environment for a birth under the direction of a medically trained practitioner (a medical doctor or midwife). It not only includes the imparting of knowledge of practical techniques for pain management, but also provides extensive knowledge of the birthing process itself.

You have made a very rewarding and wonderful career choice.  We will guide you through the process of not only becoming a Birth Doula, but also, how to establish yourself as a professional in this industry.  We look forward to working with you!

Sincerely, 

Jennifer Wolfe & Tracy Stettner
