Why Does a Doula Need Insurance?

You work closely with clients during high-stress, high-emotion moments. A misunderstanding, a slip in a client’s home, or a lost phone with client notes can turn into a costly claim. Insurance helps protect your income, reputation, and business.

What Does Doula Insurance Cover?

Doula insurance can cover client injury or property damage, claims that your services caused harm, and certain legal defence costs. It may also help with tools and equipment you rely on to do your work.
