The practice partner to The Bereavement Doula textbook.
The textbook teaches the frameworks, protocols, and bedside communication for pregnancy and infant loss across every setting where it occurs. The companion workbook is where students apply that material — reflection prompts, self-assessment, and case studies worked through alongside the main text.
Used together, the textbook and workbook are the course materials for the bereavement doula specialty certification offered through Mary’s Hands Network. The workbook is required.
Wisdom is what training looks like once it has become instinct. The workbook is where the training settles in.

Important: books ≠ certification
The textbook + workbook bundle is the course materials. To earn the 16 ICEA CEUs and the bereavement doula specialty designation, you must also enroll in and complete the live course offered through Mary’s Hands Network ($450). Buying the books alone does not equal certification.
Designed to be worked through chapter by chapter alongside the main text. Built for cohort training and self-paced study alike.
Open-ended questions with full writing space. The kind of prompts that surface the assumptions, fears, and lived experiences students bring with them into a bereavement room.
Honest checks on what students know, what they don’t, and where their competence still has to grow. Built to be repeated — once at the start of the course, once at the end.
Scenarios drawn from the kinds of losses bereavement doulas hold in practice — stillbirth, NICU loss, termination for medical reasons, infant death — with structured space to work through what care looks like in each.
To earn the bereavement doula specialty designation and the 16 ICEA CEUs, you must complete both of the following. Neither is optional.
