So you’ve picked your method and you’re ready to get started. Now it’s time to find an instructor! This page is a great starting point. 

Before you begin your search, we want to share a few tips and notes. 

Instructors meet you in a vulnerable space, and a good instructor treats this relationship with dignity and respect. They should never judge, belittle, challenge or encourage you to act contrary to your deeply held beliefs*. Nor should they impose consequences (ie deny support, challenge or question) based on you and your partner’s family planning decisions. 

If you find that you are not properly supported or are having trouble learning the method after a few sessions, these could be signs to find a new instructor. Instructors are there to empower you and guide you in your charting, and you should feel comfortable with and supported by them. 

Now you have some guidelines. Here you will find links to various databases of instructors, some compiled by individual methods and some that include instructors of all methods and backgrounds. Happy hunting!

**If you are an instructor who is interested in being included in any of these databases, please contact these organizations directly. We do not have control over their databases. Thank you!
