“My experience with Anna as my trainer was incredible! She did such a great job at keeping everyone engaged and gave in-depth answers to any questions that anyone had. I learned so much valuable information and had a great time in the training. I would highly recommend training with her!”

“Anna is spectacular. Her experience, skill, and level of professionalism was refreshing. These days it feels like so many people are caught up in work they’ve lost connection with. I knew by the first 5 minutes of being on call that there was a real kind of love in this space. Anna’s insight and passion was riveting as it was inspiring. We spent our days in the embrace of open and informed discussions surrounding labor and postpartum care. Comprehensive and thorough, our trainings emphasized the role of advocacy in supporting our clients and provided resources/tools/examples to facilitate the most conducive environments for successful birth/postpartum. Overall, it was a transformative and grounding experience that’s further solidified my path to becoming a CLD! I look forward to serving clients with this education and to working with Chicago Family Doulas in the near future!”

“Anna was so great as a trainer! I was in her virtual class and she kept us engaged and we had some laughs too! I strongly recommend Anna!”

“As someone who has never heard anything about being a doula, I really appreciated this training session. I went into this training with an open mind ready to learn and I left this training feeling well informed and confident to take on this new role. Thank you Anna for this wonderful opportunity.”

“I had such a wonderful experience attending the Labor Doula training course at Arizona Doulas with Anna Rodney. She was extremely warm and welcoming and made sure we were all comfortable throughout the two days. Anna is extremely knowledgeable about birth and radiates that passion onto everyone she teaches. I would highly recommend taking any and all courses with Anna!”

“I trained with Anna for Labor support recently. I had trained through another institution and have been doing labor for 4 yrs. I learned so much from Anna in those 2 days!! She is patient, efficient and thorough! Any questions were awnser. She is an amazing ,fun instructor!”

“I took Anna’s CAPPA postpartum doula training a few weeks ago and she was awesome! The training was moved to virtual, which I was skeptical about at first, but she still made it as interactive and engaging as an in-person training would be. What I loved about her training is that she incorporated her years of experience as a doula into it and made it personal with tips and advice for new doulas. I would highly recommend training with Anna if you have the chance!”

“As a seasoned doula, I have taken many trainings, but I must say that the training on Child Birth Education I experienced with Anna Rodney was exceptionally good. She is clear, kind, and brings light to any subject she encounters. She has a deep understanding of how students learn and adapt her teaching to all learning abilities. Her classes are interesting, engaging and full of useful information. In her class I learned, not only the subjects matter but also how to kindly include the student and make her/him feel comfortable and knowledgeable. She is a role model and I am very thankful for what I learned in her classes.”
