As a doula in New Jersey, you handle sensitive family dynamics, private birth plans, and medical history. While you provide critical emotional and physical support, your role is non-medical, which creates unique liability risks regarding the scope of practice. This NDA goes beyond standard privacy; it establishes clear boundaries for information exchange, protecting you from outcome-based liability and ensuring compliance with the NJ Law Against Discrimination and the Conscientious Employee Protection Act (CEPA).
Beyond the standard non-disclosure agreement sections, this template adds fields specific to Doula:
The core legal purpose of a Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA) is to establish a legal framework to protect confidential and proprietary information shared between parties. It restricts the unauthorized disclosure or use of such information, thereby enabling parties to collaborate, negotiate, or explore business opportunities while safeguarding sensitive information.
Medical Advice Boundaries
Explicit contractual terms prohibiting the provision of medical advice and adherence to guidelines that require referral to medical professionals for medical issues.
Birth Outcome Liability
Include disclaimers in contracts that clarify the doula's role as non-medical and state explicitly that birth outcomes cannot be guaranteed.
For this non-disclosure agreement to be legally valid:
Common mistakes to avoid:
Generally, doulas are not considered 'covered entities' under HIPAA unless they are affiliated with a healthcare system or submit claims electronically. However, New Jersey law and industry standards like DONA International strongly recommend maintaining HIPAA-level confidentiality to protect client trust and avoid privacy-related litigation.
This agreement includes specific language defining the information shared as non-medical in nature. By outlining that the information exchanged is for labor support and postpartum care—not medical diagnosis—you reinforce your non-medical scope of practice, which is a key mitigation strategy for New Jersey doulas.
No. Under the New Jersey Conscientious Employee Protection Act (CEPA), no NDA can prevent an individual from reporting what they reasonably believe to be a violation of law or public policy. Our template includes the mandatory whistleblower carve-outs required by New Jersey law.
