National Black Doulas Association; Birth Doula Training; Postpartum Doula Training; Fertility Doula Training; and Childbirth Educator Training through Baby, Please Birth Services Agency LLC
Summary of qualifications
As a board member of NBDA, I have worked with the founder Tracie Collins to enhance the curriculum for birth doulas. It was imperative to me as a doula of 18 years to ensure that doulas (especially black doulas) have not only the history of this work but the tools, skills and knowledge base to carry it out.
Style of teaching
We cannot fix maternal disparities by creating disparities in trainings and education modules. Birth justice is a tenet of doula work but so is evidence-based birth advocacy. Understanding more than just the stages of labor, but how to doula within them and recognize when birth needs interventions is crucial for safe and empowered birthing families.

Michelle is a top notch Childbirth Educator whose passion for birth work is evident.  I had the privilege of certifying as a Holistic Childbirth Educator via her Baby, Please Birth Services program. The rigor of her program prepares Childbirth Educators to fully understand critical and important physiological aspects of pregnancy, birth, and postpartum to impart on birthing parents so they may have confidence and understanding of their pregnancy to make sound and educated decisions.  Michelle drills down to layers of understanding that aren't readily taught in other classes.  I completed her class feeling empowered and will continue to pay it forward with my clients/students.
