The Investment in Our Legacy:
Your Path to a Self-Sustaining Career
Across the country, the demand for skilled birth assistants is rising. On average, a professionally trained Birth Assistant in the U.S. earns between $400–$600 per birth.
This means your certification is more than an education—it is a self-sustaining investment. Whether you choose the Online or Hybrid track, you are positioned to see a full return on your training investment within your first few months of active practice.
Because BSBA emphasizes real-world clinical integration, many of my students find that the bridge to their career is already built before they even graduate. Most students who complete their clinicals under a midwifery preceptor naturally transition into a paid birth assistant role with that same practice upon certification.
To further accelerate your reach, every BSBA graduate is featured in our National Birth Assistant Directory (available upon request). This ensures that whether you are growing with your current preceptor or seeking new professional partnerships, community midwives can easily verify the clinical precision they need at their bedside.
Together, we will show and prove that BIRTH: It's What We DO.
