We began as an informal association in October 2011 and quickly grew to be the largest national group of doulas in Australia.
We are continuing to grow and invite all doulas and student doulas in Australia to join us! Our organisation provides a place for us all to "meet" under one banner.
We are respectful of the many different philosophies and practice guidelines of doulas and are inclusive of all.
Our Objectives
We have three main objectives. Each objective builds on the next.
1. Peer support
Our Association was built on the concept of peer support. This is our foundation and we achieve this through our Facebook group, our website and local meet-ups.
2. Professional development
It's natural that as we support one another, we will learn from one another and develop professionally. We can further develop professionally through webinars and workshops.
3. Advocacy
Having an organisation such as ours, enhances our professionalism and enables us to positively influence the public perception of doulas. We can implement media campaigns and advocacy efforts to increase the demand for doulas, improve relationships with health care workers and encourage future doulas to train.
