Connecting the global end-of-life doula community
End-of-life doula certification programs have grown significantly over the past decade, with thousands of trained doulas now practicing around the world. Whether you completed a comprehensive doula certification program, are exploring what end-of-life doulas do, or are wondering whether a doula career is financially sustainable, the IEOLCA Doula Directory exists to support you - by helping families find you, and helping you build the practice you deserve.
Doulas trained through recognized programs including IEOLCA, INELDA, Doulagivers and NEDA are all welcome here. A featured directory listing is one of the most accessible ways to establish your professional presence and begin attracting clients.
A directory built for the doula community
End-of-life doulas are doing some of the most important work in the world, and families searching for support deserve an easy way to find them. The IEOLCA Doula Directory was created to bridge that gap - a trusted, searchable space where trained doulas can be found by the people who need them most.
Whether you trained with IEOLCA or through another recognized institution, you are welcome here. This directory is about elevating the entire field, not just our own graduates.
Recognized training programs
We welcome doulas trained at any reputable end-of-life care institution. The following programs are currently recognized for directory listing eligibility. If your program is not listed, you are still encouraged to apply - we review each application individually.
