Yes! You get out what you put in with any small business and if you begin without much time to devote to it then expect it to start slow. The more time and work invested into it, the faster the trajectory towards a steady stream of clients. Some of our gang do this work alongside full time jobs, families etc and others do this as their sole income. The amount you can earn varies based on what services you provide, how often you provide them, the prices that you charge and how much marketing you do to increase the chances of being seen by potential clients.

Full training folk will be invited to join a FB group with their fellow trainees and access to the online modules on. the day the course start date. They will then receive their resources and access to the main group upon completion of the course.

No, we believe in making the training accessible to as many as possible which is why we offer payment plans of up to 12 months for our. Payments must be made as agreed and missed payments caught up on ASAP alongside clear communication. Failure to keep up with payments will result in removal from the community and permission to use TBU resources denied.

Full training involves practical activities involving research, creating content and explaining aspects of birth throughout the online modules as well exploring your own thoughts and feelings around birth. When these are completed to a high standard and any necessary feedback given, then the trainees will receive their certificate of completion.

Full training groups are given access once they have completed their training.

TBU doulas have access to:

-a 55 page workbook that can be given in printed form or sent electronically to clients. The front cover of this can be changed to suit your branding as long as the TBU logo is displayed on this. Separate handouts from this can be given instead of the full book if you prefer to use alongside your content.
