A Home for Doulas
- And a Place to Grow
At Present for You, our mission is to provide compassionate, non-medical care to people living with serious illness or nearing the end of life. We know that independent doulas often spend more time finding clients and handling administrative work than actually providing care. We remove those barriers, offering our doulas the structure, resources, and training they need so they can focus on what matters most: being present for their clients.
Find Flexibility by Working with a Dedicated Team
We understand that every doula’s schedule and life circumstances are different. Many balance other jobs or caregiving roles. Some cannot afford to volunteer their time entirely. At Present for You, we believe doulas should be compensated for their expertise, especially given the emotional intensity and unpredictable nature of this work.
Ongoing Training
Our organization is led by medical, palliative care, and legal thought leaders who are passionate about continuous learning. We host regular seminars, advanced trainings, and guest speaker sessions to help our doulas expand their skills. Our programming builds on the foundations provided by leading doula training organizations, ensuring that our team is always evolving in step with best practices in serious illness and end-of-life care.
Team Support
Imagine being able to call some of the most experienced people to get questions answered and to talk through tough scenarios that you may have never encountered.
Training Process for New Hires
We believe in equipping every Present for You doula with the tools and confidence to serve clients across the spectrum of serious illness care.
Our training process includes:
Present for You’s Serious Illness Companion Course — Complete with hands-on use of our Community Care Platform.
Access to Center to Advance Palliative Care (CAPC) Courses — Offering specialized education in serious illness and palliative care.
Team Seminars with Guest Speakers — Bringing industry leaders into the room for dialogue, skill building, and insight.
