Prepare to Become a Medi-Cal Doula

Your path to becoming a doula begins here:

The Sacred Birth Path is designed to help you meet California’s Medi-Cal doula training requirements and prepare you to apply as a Medi-Cal-enrolled doula provider.

Through this course, you’ll receive foundational education and practical skills in:

  • Lactation support

  • Childbirth education and pregnancy anatomy

  • Nonmedical comfort measures and labor support

  • Prenatal and postpartum support

  • Community resources and referrals

  • And more

What this course provides:
Your training through Sacred Birth Path fulfills the qualifying doula training component of the Medi-Cal pathway and provides documentation of your completed training.

What you’ll complete separately:
To enroll as a Medi-Cal doula, you’ll also need to meet California’s additional requirements, including:

  • Supporting clients through at least three births

  • Being at least 18 years old

  • Holding current Adult/Infant CPR certification

  • Completing basic HIPAA training

  • Submitting your application directly to the California Department of Health Care Services (DHCS) through the PAVE enrollment system

Once you’ve completed the required training and additional requirements, you’ll submit your own application to DHCS for Medi-Cal enrollment.

Sacred Birth Path gives you the education and foundation to take the next step toward serving families as a Medi-Cal doula.
