Join The DAI

The Doula Association of Ireland (DAI) is the country’s largest representative body which works to support and develop the doula profession. Joining the Association is a big step for any professional doula in Ireland! 

Membership with a professional association allows you to enhance your career in several ways, such as increasing your access to resources, building your network and CV, generating business leads, and increasing the visibility of your work.

The DAI is a community of active doulas who are professionally trained by pre-approved institutions, Garda vetted, and insured to perform their work.
