National Doula Association

The National Doula Association is an organization that supports and certifies doulas—trained professionals who provide emotional, informational, and physical support to women and families during pregnancy, childbirth, and the postpartum period. The association sets standards for doula training and ethics, promotes awareness of doula services, and works to improve maternal and infant health outcomes. By fostering professional development and offering resources, it helps ensure that families receive compassionate, respectful, and individualized care throughout their reproductive journey.
