To be listed in the find a doula tool, certified doulas should update their member portal referral directory to make sure that their zip/postal code is listed. Note that changes to doula profiles in the member portal will not take effect immediately on the website, but will show up after the site undergoes routine/scheduled updates. Doulas can check to see if they are listed by inputting their zip/postal code (with full address or city/state) in the tool below.

Provisional Doula Directory
Provisionally certified doulas are birth doula certification candidates who have completed all certification requirements, except for the client experiences, that were deemed to meet the standards of DONA certification requirements completed. The provisional certificate is valid for 1 year from that date issued to help these doulas complete their client experiences towards becoming a fully certified DONA birth doula. This list is updated monthly and only reflects those provisionally certified doulas who wish to be listed.
