A fertility doula (CFD) is a specific doula that supports individuals and families on their path to becoming pregnant, regardless of what that looks like. Whether going the fertility clinic route, at-home monitoring and insemination, or a mixture of the two – a fertility doula provides you with support best suited to your needs and wants.

Did you know that even under optimal conditions, the chances of getting pregnant are around 20% per month? This makes it difficult for many to get pregnant naturally. In our Fertility Doula Certification, you’ll learn about fertility and multiple ways to help a client get pregnant naturally, fertility treatments, allowing members of the LGBT+ community, and more. We will also cover pregnancy avoidance.

Purchase of this course entitles the student to access our private student and alums group, which offers early access to systems in development, free attendance to all live webinars, and discount codes on existing products. 

The Fertility Doula course contains six modules of training and assignments and takes an average of 8 weeks to complete.

This course counts for 3 CEUs toward the TMI Doula Certification. 

The fertility doula  Course provides the Certified Fertility Doula (CFD) credential upon completion and payment in full. We strongly recommend a Labor & Birth doula certification before completing this course.
