VBAC Doula Training Online

Advanced VBAC Doula Certification Program

The most comprehensive VBAC Doula Training in the world, perfectly packaged in an online, self-paced video course.

In an ideal world, VBAC parents would be treated just like any other birthing parents.

In today's world, most medical providers don't fully support VBAC parents and automatically suggest a repeat C-section to deliver the baby.

However, 90% of parents with a prior Cesarean are good candidates to attempt a VBAC; it is our job as doulas to stand by their side, educate them about their options and watch out for their family's best interest, health and well-being. 

The Advanced VBAC Doula Certification system is the most comprehensive VBAC doula training in the world, perfectly packaged in an online, self-paced video course — all designed to teach you how to increase your ability and confidence in supporting parents birthing after Cesarean.

We are Julie Francom & Meagan Heaton 

We created this Advanced VBAC Doula Certification to educate, inspire, and change the attitude surrounding VBAC, one doula at a time. 

Why?

A few years back, we didn't know if VBAC was even possible, let alone safe - for us and our babies. We dived deep and learned the ins and out of VBAC - both the facts and the myths. We made it! Now, as VBAC moms and experienced doulas, it's our mission to spread the knowledge and help other parents during their pregnancy and labor.

The Advanced VBAC Doula Certification contains all the evidence-based information, tools, and strategies we used to educate ourselves during our pregnancies and make decisions about our birth, and as doulas to continue to educate our clients.

Here are 9 things you’ll learn in the VBAC Doula Course:

  • What makes a VBAC parent different
  • Processing Cesarean birth with your clients
  • Evidence-based, up to date VBAC stats & facts
  • VBAC and C-section risks & benefits
  • Red flags for providers and birthplace
  • Safely avoiding unnecessary C-sections
  • Signs of uterine rupture in labor
  • What to expect during TOLAC
  • How to support the emotional needs of yourself & your clients

Are you ready? Let’s do this.

Learn how to identify a VBAC supportive provider, the facts about uterine rupture, and how to encourage the pelvis and baby to be in the best position for birth is critical.

 

We will teach you how to help your clients make informed decisions about their care and how to advocate for themselves in the birth space.

5 Million Stars

"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. 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...."

Brush up on the latest

"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!"
