How long will it take me to complete the training?

Each training includes about 24 hours of videos and activities. You can complete it at your own pace, and many people finish within 3–4 days.

Gain Observation and Patient-Care Hours

Postpartum doula training gives you the rare advantage of earning both observation and hands-on patient-care hours in a real healthcare environment. You’ll observe OB-GYNs, midwives, nurses, pediatric teams, and lactation consultants—experiencing clinical communication, patient support, and coordinated care firsthand, which many pre-health programs accept as valuable shadowing hours. At the same time, your direct involvement in postpartum recovery, newborn care, safety monitoring, and family education provides meaningful patient-care interaction. Many PA, nursing, NP, and healthcare programs recognize these responsibilities as direct patient-care hours, reflecting true patient-centered care and strengthening your healthcare school applications.
