About The Doula Association


​We are an organisation of independent doulas, founded in 2021. We seek to embed, raise the profile and visibility of doulas and to have an established role in making a meaningful impact on the landscape of birth and early parenthood across the UK.

Aims:

  • To provide end-to-end support for doulas – to doula the doula
  • To establish an organisation that is dedicated to helping its members succeed both as doulas and as business owners
  • To promote the role of birth and postnatal doulas so that it is understood, recognised, valued and known as a viable option with a significantly positive impact, not only on birth outcomes and experiences for both birthing people and babies but on breastfeeding and bonding relationships
  • To raise the profile of the doula profession to improve birth and postnatal support for women, families, and healthcare professionals
  • Through the education of doulas, provide families with continuity of support during the childbearing year, inspiring positive birthing experiences and beyond
  • To share current evidence, topical and related reading materials to our members 
  • To bring doulas together with a common sense of purpose and belonging, with integrity and enthusiasm as a profession
  • To encourage self-management and regulation by holding personal choice at the centre of what we do, applying both to our doulas and to our clients
