There are two types of Doulas: birth doulas and postpartum doulas. Both are skilled and knowledgeable trained professionals who offer educational, physical, and emotional support to women and their families throughout the childbearing year.
SA-CTDA is an Association of Birth and Postpartum Doulas. Our members all live in Central Texas, and agree to our detailed scope of practice. You can read about individual SA-CTDA Birth Doulas listed here, and our Postpartum Doulas listed here.
When families choose a SA-CTDA Doula
They can feel confident they have chosen a Doula who will handle their needs in a professional, responsible, and ethical manner. SA-CTDA Doulas have agreed to the organization’s Standards of Practice and Code of Ethics Statements and are bound to those agreements upon membership. SA-CTDA Doulas receive continuing education, professional support, and share community resources through our organization. SA-CTDA Doulas come from varying backgrounds, training, and experience levels, but they do share the same mission in caring for families in the perinatal period.
