151 | Why doulas don’t want to be certified
Update: 2024-06-06
Description
Just like with all things birth we are talking about the risks and benefits, pros and cons of doula certification, and insurance reimbursement today. This is a must listen if you are a doula, or thinking of becoming one, or if you are a mom wanting to hire a doula.
In this episode, I discuss:
- Recent posts from Elite Doula Training on new legislatures from Texas and Ohio that are trying to control doulas and that can have a big impact on how your doula can support you.
- The motives behind certification agencies, lawmakers and hospital systems work together, and it’s not to benefit you.
- Examples of rules and regulations that doula certification programs and insurance companies put on doulas, and the parallels to how the medical system stole midwifery.
- What you can do as a doula and as a mom to opt out of doula regulations from your state or hospital.
