We encourage our birth worker students to have completed comprehensive training related to their course of birth work before attending this VBAC support class. This is not a typical doula training. We focus exclusively on the extra information you need to prepare yourself to support your clients as they prepare for VBAC.

This course provides so much VBAC specific information for supporting families. It is a perfect supplement to other training which does not go as in-depth with VBACs. Considering the amount of cesarean births happening in the US, this is an important tool to have in your doula resources. In addition to the valuable course content, the referrals and community support after completing the course are paramount! So many VBAC referrals coming into my business from the Find A Doula page! 10/10 would recommend.

I’ve gotten so many clients from being a VBAC Link certified doula!! The community they have built for VBAC moms is incredible, and this course is amazing for birth workers. I did not have a csection myself, but being able to learn from two women who have had VBACs has helped me relate to my clients so much more!

If I could give the VBAC Link 5 millions stars, I would. It’s just that good! I have been a doula for 3.5 years now and have supported multiple VBAC mamas. This course has changed everything about how I will support, educate, and love on VBAC mamas from now on. The evidence based information, positive attitude, professionalism, education, encouragement, and JOY I have received from Julie and Meagan leave me at a loss for words. I am so grateful I found this incredible source of information on VBACs. I am sharing it with everyone I know! If you are on the fence about buying this course, just DO IT. You won’t regret this invaluable information that has been tied up in such a easy to learn package. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you VBAC Link!!!!

I LOVE THIS COURSE. I am an experienced doula and I’ve supported a number of VBAC clients in the past. But I will doula differently now that I’ve taken this course. I loved the information. I also love the connection you have to the VBAC link community after your certification is done. HIGHLY recommend. 🙂

Marvellous course content. Thoroughly enjoyed the course and often refer back to the manual when dealing with clients. The manual is one of my major resources to look up to when dealing with VBAC mamas.
Thank you Julie and Meagan!

The VBACLink is seriously changing lives! I’m so glad I was able to take this course to further educate my self on how to help women achieve an empowered birth experience, not just a successful VBAC.

I’ve been a doula for 11 years, and have seen changes occur over time, but there is still a ways to go! This course was a FANTASTIC way to brush up on the latest statistics and to do some well needed continuing education on the current state of VBAC here in the US. Thank you!

Jill McKnight –
I absolutely LOVE the VBAC Link! I am so thankful for the information provided in this course, I only wish I had access to it when I planned my VBAC almost 10 years ago! I highly recommend this course to birth workers and doulas.
