The Art of Being with Birth
Doula Preparation Courses

Picture
After a combined 30 plus years of doula experience, working with families before, during and after birth, Daisy Dinwoodie and Fiona Reilly are now inviting others to join them in honing the skills of supporting and being with birth. The focus is on discovering who we are and what we bring to this sacred work, in a time when birth is becoming increasingly medicalised. The opportunity for families to transform through this powerful rite of passage can be beautifully accompanied by our ways of being with birth, through embracing those we work with, and trusting their own knowing.

This course is over three months with three weekends of contact during that time.
We also have a Postnatal Doula Training course. ​We are open to travelling to offer courses to groups outside of Scotland.​​

"The course was incredible, I highly recommend it to anyone interested in becoming a doula. I feel like I grew as a person and learnt a lot of life skills as well, such as the listening and communication skills. It was really valuable to be part of a small group of women all on the same learning journey, my 'doula sisters'. I enjoyed the course a lot and each day felt like a real treat. The course brought it home to me how important this work is, and how we need more women to be doing it. It gave us the confidence to believe that we are enough to be doulas, and looked at what was standing in our way, helping us to overcome barriers to starting this work. I feel I've gained the confidence, skills and support network to start practicing as a doula." (Rosalie Short)

"Daisy and Shanti are the most inspirational doulas that I know, offering years of experience in the birth world. They both have a strong passion for physiological birth and protecting women's rights. Daisy and Shanti are also wonderful facilitators, offering gentle guidance and practical skills." (Ugne Dawes-Salazar)
​

"I couldn't think of two people more suited to their vocation. Having studied under Daisy's tutelage and having Shanti as my mentor, I have every faith that their course will be a great success. Between them both, Daisy and Shanti have years of practical experience, knowledge and such an intuitive approach to teaching." (Shelley Stewart)
