Certified End-of-Life Doula Training
Being a Doula is an opportunity to assist others through any one of life’s many transitions.
About the Course
Our certified course takes you on a journey of exploration. You will be given the space to look into and examine your thoughts and feelings around death and dying whist gaining the necessary and relevant information to assist those at the end of their life and/or their loved ones.
It’s important to understand the law in this space and to gain the confidence you need to help your client/s find their voices and plan their end of life, their way.
Our End-of-Life Doula Training is entirely online. The training consists of 7 modules containing video content, articles, stories and resources.You will have 9 months to complete the course.
You will be assigned to a class and supported by dedicated educators to support you on your journey.
We also offer additional student support through our monthly ‘Let’s doula this’ virtual meet-up, where we offer all students and Village members a place to gather, share and ask questions with WTTF and Doula Support Solutions mentors and the occasional guest speaker. This is an opportunity for you to meet other Doulas at various stages of their journey.

"My experience has been nothing short of wonderful. It has opened my mind (and heart) to see how differently we can do deathcare within the Australian landscape. Each module was full of so much knowledge, wisdom and so many wonderful resources that I deeply connected with. You can tell it has been written and put together with heart and reflects Renee’s real, rich experience of being with the dying. The way it’s taught as well as the content, deeply aligns with the way that I would like to practice as a doula and make change within the death care space. I feel super supported moving forward and feel as though this course has given me all the tools and knowledge to flourish as I take the next steps in my doula career. Thank you for all that you do, I couldn’t recommend this course more highly".Thanks Renee,

“Engaging the services of a professional EOL doula seemed like the most natural thing to do when my father unexpectedly died late last year. Having my doula support me through honouring my father’s death in the most dignified and intimate space was a truly cathartic and uplifting experience. The experience is a gift that enabled me to freely express my feelings and create a pathway to ensure my father’s memory will live in my heart forever”.
