For those Who are Called
Some arrive on the path through their own motherhood journey. Others feel drawn to community care or envision a service-based profession. Each carries a deep desire to offer compassionate care during a mother’s most tender transitions.
You may already work as a doula, chef, herbalist, or nutritionist—and have either witnessed the gaps in postpartum care or experienced them firsthand. You value presence over perfection and deep nourishment over nutritional dogma.
Whether envisioning in-home postpartum care, launching a meal delivery offering, or integrating sacred nourishment into an existing path, you seek guidance, community, and sustainable structure.
This training equips those with a heart of service with the practical tools, confidence, and connection needed to support the mothers of her village.

Fill Your Cup First
Every doula must first cultivate her own nourishment rituals before offering care to others. This foundation is at the heart of Doula Chef training. By embracing these skills in your own kitchen, you lay the groundwork for providing sacred support to others.
