The primary mission of the doula profession is to positively impact the childbearing experience, and other life stages, for individuals and their families. Fundamental to doula care is the understanding that continuous emotional support and reassurance during labour, birth, postpartum and along journeys improves and enhances outcomes.

The purpose of the Association is to promote the professional development, advancement and recognition of Doulas in Ireland for the benefit of mothers, babies, parents, families and the wider community. Our Association aims to raise awareness of Doula support services as complementary components for health and well-being.
