ICTC Doula Philosophy
ICTC Doula Training Program
ICTC Standard of Practice for ICTC Full Circle Doulas
Blessed is the Doula whose intention is to sacrifice her time to serve the mothers, babies and families. A doula is a birth companion who provides personal support to women and families throughout the pregnancy and childbirth experience.
The International Center for Traditional Childbearing (ICTC) sponsors the Full Circle Doula Training Program which came about as part of ICTC's continued commitment to the empowerment of women, an increase of positive birth outcomes, and reduction of infant mortality in African American communities.
Full Circle Doula Training is perfect for students interested in learning Doula skills from multicultural, historical and traditional perspectives.
Full Circle Doulas learn the history of midwifery as a model of care, infant mortality prevention, medical terminology, anatomy and physiology of pregnancy and labor, nutrition and herbs, labor comfort measures, breastfeeding techniques, and much more.
Many graduates continue to serve their international communities as doulas, midwives, nurses, and public health advocates. |
