DNT Network Mentorship

Your Experience is Someone’s Breakthrough

Whether you’ve supported families for 5 or 25 years, your insights can change the path of a new care professional.

At DNT Network, we connect students with mentors who’ve walked the path—and are ready to lift others up.

  • "Just one conversation reminded me why I started this work in the first place."

    — Alicia, Birth Doula & Mentor

  • “I wish I had this kind of support when I was starting out. It’s an honor to be that person for someone else now.”

    — Kim, IBCLC

  • “We talked over coffee, and I saw so much of myself in her journey. Guiding someone like that—it’s what our field needs more of.”

    — Rosa, Postpartum Doula

  • “Mentoring through DNT was effortless—but the impact was powerful. It felt good to give back and stay connected to the heart of this work.”

    — Monique, Certified NCS

  • “We think we’re too busy to mentor. But 30 minutes? That’s nothing compared to the difference it makes in someone’s confidence and career.”

    — Jamie, Doula + Sleep Consultant
