Our Mission
At M.I.L.K, Doula Academy, we're redefining doula training, inviting passionate individuals to join our innovative academy and become a valuable part of the M.I.L.K. family. Our comprehensive training goes beyond traditional doula programs, focusing not only on delivery and postpartum support but also on teaching doulas to guide women in lifestyle changes during pregnancy. Our Lifestyle Doula training program provides dual certification as a postpartum doula. As a M.I.L.K.-trained doula, you'll have the unique opportunity to not only support your own clients, but to virtually support M.I.L.K. clients too, connecting with them through a range of services that include evidence-based classes, breastfeeding consultations, and personalized nutrition plans.
We believe in the power of in-person connections, and our training equips doulas to create their own offerings, connecting with families in person and fostering a deeper, more personal bond. M.I.L.K. provides all the necessary materials, templates, and guidance to ensure our doulas thrive as lifestyle educators. We empower our doula community to host impactful in-person events, contributing to M.I.L.K's mission of lowering infant and maternal mortality and morbidity rates.
Join M.I.L.K Doula Academy to be part of a movement that transcends traditional doula training. Together, as members of the M.I.L.K family, we are dedicated to reshaping the narrative of maternal wellness. Our unique approach not only enriches the lives of the families we serve but also contributes to our collective goal of achieving healthier outcomes for both infants and mothers.
