Motherwit Doula Training is hosting an online two weekend doula training! New Families are our society's most precious resources. Doulas are new parent attachment figures. How parents learn, are treated, and given the opportunity to heal gaps in their own upbringing shapes the future of humanity.

This in depth doula training will provide you with what you need to get started in a career tending to the informational, comfort, emotional, and if applicable, even spiritual needs of a new parent. As the parent holds the baby in secure attachment, so do we hold the parent.

For over thirty years I have been active in the doula field, endlessly studying and practising ways to reduce trauma and nourish access to external and internal resources parents need to raise compassionate, grounded human beings. With a doula business in two cities and a thriving practice, I can support you in developing a meaningful career you love!

As mentors to mothers and parents, we know well how nuanced and complex the identity of "mother" is. There are many who have borne life but have never had the opportunity to parent. There are many who have not given birth, but are no less mothers than those who have. There are those who identify as "mother" even if they are not women, not associating the word "mother" with "female parental unit" but an energy of nourishing and nurturing with body, mind, and spirit. Others do not identify with "mother" at all, despite having birthed and/or raised children, but feel an ache on this day to be known as they are through whole hearted actions rather than identity.

Whoever you are, we uphold and honour you under this beautiful, gruelling umbrella of a title that centers some more than others. For those who celebrate, Happy Mother's Day! Happy Parent's Day! For those who turn off the lights and shut the door on the world to move through grief, sorrow, anger, and/or depression...we hold you with our empathy and care.

This may seem like a strange request, but take a moment and pretend to take a big bite out of a burger.

What does your head do? Where do you put the bun? How do you take a big bite?

The motion of a baby latching well looks a lot like the motion of taking a big bite of a burger.

Your baby's chin is on the breast, then his head tips back as he latches. When your baby is latched well, his chin will be deep into the breast.

A deep latch ensures that your baby gets plenty of milk and you feel no pain.
