Education for Now, Community for Always

 At New Horizons Training Network, we offer more than just doula and educator training; we offer mentorship, community, and a support system rooted in respect, compassion, and excellence. With over 25 years of hands-on experience as a doula and educator, 20 years of trainer leadership, and more than a decade spent crafting impactful, evidence-based curriculum for professionals, founder Laura Nance has built New Horizons to reflect the heart of doula work, the power of exceptional teaching, and true community.

What Makes Our Trainers Unique

Our trainers come from across the nation, bringing a wide range of backgrounds, lived experiences, and niche expertise - so you can find the trainer who truly fits you. They’re more than instructors; they’re part of the community you’ll grow with long after training ends.


Each trainer is an experienced doula, educator, and mentor, with decades of hands-on practice and leadership in maternal health education. Committed to compassionate, evidence-based teaching, they’ll guide your journey with both skill and heart.
