Doula Registry Information

The Minnesota legislature enacted a law effective July 1, 2007, creating the Doula Registry within the Minnesota Department of Health (MDH). The department verifies that an applicant is certified by a designated doula certifying organization (DCO) listed in statute and identifies whether the doula has a criminal history as shown on the web site of the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension.

Standards or Competencies

The department does not have a list of standards or competencies that a doula should meet in order to be listed on the registry. You must contact the certifying organization to determine what standards or competencies a doula certified by that organization must possess.

Doula Registration Length

You will be listed on the Doula Registry for three years from the date your name is added to the registry, if you maintain your doula certification with a designated DCO. The expiration date of your DCO will be on the List of Registered Doulas.

Doula Renewal

Approximately 60 days prior to your expiration, you will receive email notification that it is time to renew your inclusion on the registry. Click link in email to go to Minnesota Department of Health Licensing System and begin the renewal process.
