I took a doula training course with Sharon and I was truly blown away. Sharon has a big and genuine heart. She is incredibly knowledgeable, an amazing teacher, and truly has a way with people. As a labor and delivery nurse who is crossing over into the birth doula space, I learned so much and feel very prepared to start this new journey. Im not sure I have ever felt sad that a learning workshop was coming to an end until today. Thank you Sharon for pouring into us trainees and setting us up for success!

Highly recommend taking a training with Sharon! Honestly I feel so prepared to take on my doula rol, she gave us a lot of insight, knowledge and tools on how to become successful doulas to our clients. I feel like she actually goes the extra mile for her trainees and I know that if/when needed I can reach her to clear our concerns.

I took a doula training course with Sharon and as an experienced doula I found the class interesting, interactive, and very enjoyable! Somehow she makes the 9 hour day feel like it goes by quickly. It’s clear that she truly cares about new doulas and is prepared to support them through the beginning and growth of their new businesses. I highly recommend taking her class!

Took Sharon's VBAC class and it was so helpful! Would definitely recommend to anyone considering this option.

Update: I completed her Birth Doula classes and I am so happy I did this!! She has been an amazing teacher from beginning to end. She is thoroughly, heart warming, real, easy to engage & interact in her class. The one thing that stood out to me the most of how much she put into going over the HARD topics like fetal death, maternal death in black women, how to treat someone if they are in the LGBTQIA+ community. Thank you Sharon! Had a lactation workshop today, it was one of the most fun, interactive, safe space to learn I have had a long while. I will be taking her birth classes coming up next week. I am so excited to be in this class. She is so knowledgeable, fun, sweet and just overall an amazing teacher. Thank you Sharon can't wait for the next set of classes!

I cannot recommend this Lamaze training class enough! I took Sharon's class for my preparation of the LCCE, and the class provided me with core elements/topics of Lamaze childbirth education and strategies that I could use for my further teaching. Sharon was incredibly knowledgeable, supportive, and inspiring. She has been a constant source of support of my journey of becoming a Lamaze Certified Childbirth Educator.

If you are looking to take a class from Sharon I highly recommend it! She is a very passionate person, who has loads of information to share.

I recently took part in Sharon's 4 day doula training workshop and follow up lactation class. What a great experience! In just 4.5 days Sharon was able to fully give us the keys to see ourselves as capable doulas across many situations.  By really emphasizing that the main aspect of a doula's role is to be there for their clients, to help them know their choices, to help amplify their voices and follow their leads, Sharon showed us how our mere presence as listener, supporter and advocate can make a big and beneficial difference at such a pivotal moment. The course covered so much - from cultural humility and awareness to prenatal care and birth planning to understanding many aspects of labor and birth to postpartum support to being there for clients grieving from overwhelm, disappointment or loss. The panels with guest doulas from across the country with various specialities and backgrounds were particularly wonderful and inspiring. My fellow classmates were also each so very inspiring. Sharon helped to create an open hearted and open minded space in which we could hear each other and share.  And on the practical side, the course covered the nuts and bolts of launching a doula practice - marketing, building a resource base, contracts, payment and to top it off, Sharon continues to make herself available with office hours and mentoring as we progress on our doula path. The workshop exceeded my expectations and further affirmed for me that the path of a doula is one I want to start and tread.

Sharon is a wonderful person and instructor. She is very easy to talk to and is inclusive of people of all backgrounds. I learned a lot from her in both her doula and lactation courses. She is a DONA certified instructor, and I highly recommend! I feel very prepare to go into the profession of doula work.

Sharon Muza's Birth Doula YOUR Way Workshop trainings are exceptional and offer the most convenient, comprehensive and inclusive Doula training available to anyone interested in becoming a certified Doula. I highly recommend any of her birth training classes!

Sharon is an amazing birth doula trainer! Her training was engaging, informative, and comprehensive. I left feeling ready to start the work!

Sharon is a fantastic trainer. I would absolutely encourage any Doula interested in training to work with her.

She is so passionate, compassionate, and knowledgeable. She is among the leaders of doulas nationwide and I am grateful I got to learn from this woman. She intends on changing this world for the better, I believe she is, one birth at a time.

Phenomenal training. I attended this workshop online and was engaged, excited, and learning the entire time. I simply can't thank Sharon enough for sharing her knowledge and experience.

I took online classes with Sharon. Everything was so important specially when I turned into 36 weeks. Please read carefully her recommendations. I have my successful delivery after 2 CS. *Si tú hablas español te recomiendo a Andrea Baliña, ella tomo cursos con Sharon y fue la que me ayudó en mi parto, una excelente Duola.

I took Sharon's Birth doula Your way course this past week and it was nothing short of amazing! She kept us so engaged and informed throughout our time together. She had encouragement and knowledge to combat any and every doubt I've had about myself entering the realm of being a Birth Doula. Made me a little emotional to end our course this evening. I highly recommend Sharon for any of your training, birth education and doula needs. She has a huge and genuine heart and is so willing to share her experiences. Thank you Sharon!!!

I left my doula training so eager to get started! I feel like so many of Sharon’s words will stick with me for life. She has a way of saying things that will make you remember them. We also received some birth tools for our doula bag which was much appreciated. The training was very well-rounded and engaging. Highly recommend! Thanks Sharon!

I am so happy I hd the chance to learn about being a birth Doula with Sharon. I feel so supported. Thank you Sharon!

My partner and I took a private birth class with Sharon and I could not recommend it enough. It was fun, interactive and extremely helpful for my labor. Being prepared kept me calm and focused. I had a beautiful laboring experience.

Sharon is very supportive and has been a great help in getting my Birth Doula business started. I completed the training in September 2023 and would recommend it for anyone looking for a virtual, affordable, fast-paced program. Thanks Sharon!

Sharon is a personable, funny, and sincere teacher. She uses her industry knowledge and love of all things birth to make classes engaging and fun. I took her lactation your way for doulas class recently and learned some new things I wasn't aware of and polished some old skills! Thank you!

Sharon's class is part labor/birth prep and part patient/self advocacy. You don't have to be medically versed to ask your care team for more information or decline their suggestions or receive reassuring support. I was skeptical about doing this class online but found that practicing labor positions in the comfort of my home (where I might actually be laboring) was far superior than doing it in an onsite classroom surrounded by a bunch of strangers (who are now a supportive texting community sharing resources). Sharon keeps it super real, funny, engaging, and always always data-driven. She approaches birth from a gender-neutral and judgement-free perspective, allowing for a diversity of birthing people, families, and beliefs to be welcome. Her use of online classroom tools is unmatched! Could not recommend this class highly enough.

I had the pleasure of taking Sharon's Child Birth Doula Course and I could not recommend her course and her services enough! Her passion is evident in her teaching, her interaction, and her business as a whole. She is a well of knowledge, support, and resources. Her method of teaching not only excites you for the new role you are prepping for, but also prepares mentally, emotionally, and physically to be successful. 100/10 would recommend this course and any other services she provides.

I took Sharon's early pregnancy class virtually in May, and it was a super helpful way to get my bearings and to feel more prepared about having a baby. Sharon has tons of experience and offered so many resources, and since the class was small, we got lots of individual attention and support. It wasn't a huge time commitment either, and very doable for a working person. I highly recommend it!

I attended Sharon's doula training and was really impressed with the content and her facilitation. She brought in highly trained and knowledgeable guest speakers and gave us a lot of time to process and discuss our new learnings. Would highly recommend this training to anyone looking to be a doula.

Sharon is a superhero in my book!!! A wonderful class and such a great teacher!(Doula)

It is really wonderful to have an instructor like Sharon, someone who knows their stuff and is genuinely passionate. We really appreciated how engaging and fun her class was, that is a feat to do on Zoom! We are so thankful our midwife pointed us in Sharon's direction, I know the whole process toward becoming parents was greatly enriched because of her experience and passion. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts, Sharon!

Sharon's childbirth course took us through diverse labor and delivery concepts that we would not have covered without her BBYW course (birth positions, cpr, child seat safety, post baby delivery care, breastfeeding, medical decision-making). My partner and I looked forward to spending 2.5 hours each week with her, and felt more prepared for our first birth after every session. Sharon has incredible bedside manner, is extremely knowledgeable and imparts her technical knowledge in an impartial, judgement-free environment. She encourages students to come together to learn and enter parent hood as a community (whatsapp groups, online video collaboration) and truly cares for each and every one of her course participants. We are truly indebted to her for imparting her knowledge/wisdom on us, and feel empowered to deliver in a way that is tailored to our own preferences and who we are. Thank you Sharon for all that you do - you are a gift to the parenting community in Seattle!

We took Sharon's 8-week birth course and LOVED it. Sharon is so knowledgable and we appreciated her unbiased perspectives. The course is informative and leverages a fun and playful format to teach important concepts and make them more memorable. Sharon is so passionate about child birth and her students. We feel much better prepared after taking her course. Thanks Sharon!

Sharon's class helped me feel more prepared going into this birth with understanding the different elements of labor progression, how to ask questions to get information and advocate for myself, understanding recommended birth practices, and practicing pain management and comfort measures. I highly recommend her classes as a holistic way to prepare for childbirth!

I am very glad I took her birthing and baby course. I learned pretty much everything: coping skills for giving birth, all the options and possibilities while giving birth, breast feeding tips and tricks, what to expect with newborn, cpr and baby safety and more. After I gave birth the nurses at the hospital complimented me and said I did not seem like a first time mom because of how much knowledge I had and how successful I was in getting a proper latch while breastfeeding. I honestly owe it all to this course. I highly recommend families participate in her courses because once baby is born.. it's game time and boy am I glad I was better prepared ahead of time! There were a lot of families that took the course and we have a group chat where we communicate about how pregnancy is going and we share our birthing stories and experiences. Having this community feels like a warm hug because pregnancy can be lonely at times and having a whole group of people to talk to is helpful. That is another aspect of the class I really liked.

I was lucky enough to take my doula certification class with Sharon. She is so knowledgeable and provides clear concise information. I recently took another class on lactation with Sharon that once again was effective, informative and engaging. I look forward to more classes.

Sharon's birth doula training workshop was so thorough, and importantly, fun and engaging! After starting as a postpartum doula, this was the additional training I needed to also offer birth doula support to families in my community. I'm excited to get started, and grateful to have Sharon's ongoing mentorship that she provides to all her students.

Sharon's birthing class was incredible! It was very educational and helped improve our understanding and confidence going into child birth! I would highly recommend taking any of Sharon's classes. She makes learning very fun and does a great job of keeping everyone engaged.

This class is imperative to anyone who’s Brest/chest feeding or assisting! I feel more confident & comfortable, which is invaluable. Thank you Sharon!

Sharon is a great teacher, mentor, and person. After twenty years of wanting to achieve a personal goal, she helped me to do so. Taking her doula course was the best thing I have ever done for myself. She continues to cheer me on from the sidelines and offers her knowledge and sound advice whenever I feel like I’m unsure of my abilities. Taking any course from her is well worth it. I would recommend her courses to any and all. Very inclusive and she leads with both brilliance and kindness. Thank you, Sharon!

Sharon's class is a must! Take this if you want to feel empowered, informed and confident about your labor and delivery. I learned so much in digestible bits and in a fun format. Sharon has an incredible wealth of knowledge and resources, and goes above and beyond to build confidence and prepare families - preparing them to have many decisions in the L&D process. I also appreciated Sharon's thoughtfulness and with words she used in class to make the classroom an inviting, inclusive and safe environment that encouraged openness.

Sharon’s class was very helpful in preparing to welcome my baby to the world. She’s clearly very knowledgeable and uses inclusive and welcoming language 🏳️‍🌈

Her class was so informative and Sharon is great about answering all questions! We thought we knew a lot about having a baby going in but this was definitely worth the time and money - I feel much more confident going into having our first child!

Sharon has a wealth of knowledge that she shares during her interactive workshop. The use of Google classroom was great for the real life examples for a Birth Doula. Highly recommend.

My husband and I are so grateful that we found Sharon! Her childbirth class was so engaging and full of helpful information and resources. We feel so much more prepared, all from the comfort of our living room! We cannot recommend Sharon and her classes enough!

My husband and I took both the lactation and birthing class that Sharon offers. We were laughing while getting educated, so that’s always a good sign! We learned what questions we had (since we went into it with minimal knowledge of what we didn’t know) and felt empowered leaving both classes. Sharon never made us feel like there were any dumb questions and we felt very comfortable through both classes. They were interactive and memorable! We would highly recommend Sharon to any parents hoping to gain a few pearls before their baby arrives. She also shared a ton of resources and useful apps at the end of each class. Thank you, Sharon!

Sharon is a total treasure and has had a huge positive impact on my pregnancy journey as I prepare to welcome my first child into the world. Sharon's childbirth education classes are top-notch, not just because they are informative, interactive, and engaging, but because they are EMPOWERING. Her real-talk honesty and tough-love support were exactly what my partner and I needed as we neared our due date. We opted for Sharon's private classes since we couldn't make any of her group class times work. We chose Labor Your Way + After Birth Your Way and both were content dense, delivered in digestible ways, and 100% worth the money. She had stellar curriculum and activities prepared and she also adapted to our needs and questions in real time so that we could focus on the things we were most interested in and concerned about. Sharon is clearly a seasoned pro, I am convinced she is the queen mother of Seattle area childbirth educators. Big thanks, Sharon. Jay and I are fans for life 💕

Thank you Sharon for your intelligent teaching expertise. With your passionate guidance and creative teaching style, you have helped so many students become compassionate doulas. Your calming and nurturing presence provided guidance, and a wealth of knowledge on childbirth and pre and postnatal care. Thank you for your awesome class and giving me the tools to develop into a confident and capable doula.

Sharon's class is super engaging even though it's virtual. It helped us learn to advocate for ourselves as well as still remaining open to the unexpected. We felt really prepared during the birth of our child thanks to Sharon.

I took Sharon’s 4 day workshop and had a wonderfully knowledgeable time. The amount of material Sharon covered is amazing , and I was able to be in the comfort of my own home, with my microphone on mute until I needed to speak,and I still felt like I learned just as much virtually as I would have in person. My course fee even included another workshop I NEEDED in order for it to count as part of my Doula certification through Dona international standards. Sharon sent my supplies I needed right to my home address and gifted me not only those resources, but a plethora of cataloged digital resources to reference back to whenever I need and introduced special guest speakers during our workshop, that we may contact at any time with any questions. If you’re thinking about taking ANY course with Sharon, RUN— don’t just walk towards the opportunity!!

We had an excellent experience with our birth class!

Before choosing Sharon Muza's birth doula workshop, I'd researched thoroughly to find an instructor I felt could provide me with the knowledge I'd need to move forward on my own and be successful as a birth doula. I was determined to find someone who was open minded, inclusive of all individuals, a strong role model, experienced, and someone who could convey clearly and candidly what being a birth doula looks like. I'm so grateful I decided on Sharon! Her ability to make you laugh while stretching you, teaching you, supporting you, enlightening you and building confidence within you, is an art. Her birth doula workshop will also set you up for DONA certification which is awesome! I wholeheartedly recommend Sharon for any course, workshop, or class she offers. She will empower you and she will make you laugh!! Enjoy!

Had the best time learning with Sharon in a CEP workshop! She has so much to share and brings a lot of experience and tips to the table! I finished the workshop full of ideas and really excited to start teaching! 100% recommend!

Training with Sharon was incredible! She has such a creative mind plus knowledge and that is why learning from her is so special.
