“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!”

“Anna’s labor doula class was absolutely amazing. I love how much passion she put in her class and her passion for birth. Even as a birth worker I had so much to learn from her. I’m so happy I decided to take the labor doula class with Anna and would highly recommend it to anyone planning taking a class. I’m sure her parenting classes are just as incredible as this was.”

“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!”

“I took an Childbirth Educator Training with Anna, and it was AMAZING. She is so incredibly kind, gentle and knows SO MUCH. Not only did she provide amazing material but she brought the entire class together in a way where we were learning from each other as well. I feel lucky to have Anna as a resource for post training. Thanks Anna!”

“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.”
