If you want to learn more about what it means to be a postpartum doula and how to go about doing it, then this is the book you need. This book closely mirrors the DONA postpartum doula training, so it is a great introduction for those thinking about embarking on this career. I found the book asked the right questions to get me thinking about what kind of doula I want to be. Everything from personal boundaries, setting up your business, marketing, and meeting prospective clients is included.

A wonderful resource for new and experienced doulas

I was very excited to find this book. Ms Kelleher has done a wonderful job of articulating her point - that postpartum doulas are NEEDED and that our work is very important. We aren't just babysitters or housekeepers, but we are nutruring women (men) who strive to make the postpartum experience easier and better for the family - the long-term results of this support are admirable! She has given us practical tips to use in our carreers, as well as some important reminders to keep us on the right track. Thank you for a wonderful resource! I look forward to taking the DONA doula training and becoming a DONA certified postpartum doula!
